We have investigated proton-rare gas atom charge transfer collisions in the energy range from 20 to 100 keV and have extracted the electrostatic dipole moments (EDMs) of the collisionally produced H(n=3) atoms from the optical data. The results show that the EDM decreases with increasing atomic number of the rare gas atoms. Our data provide experimental evidence that post-collisional electrostatic forces do not influence the formation of the EDMs. 相似文献

Molecular dynamics simulation has been performed for studying the relation between amorphous structure of polymers and penetrant diffusion. The self-diffusion coefficients of O2 and He in various polymer models, which differ from each other in view of the amorphous structure, were calculated above their glass transition temperatures. The amorphous structure was characterized by considering the percolation of the unoccupied volume. A good correlation was found between the self-diffusion coefficients and the number of clusters in the unoccupied volume at the critical point of the percolation. Based on the simulated cluster size distribution at the critical point, we defined a parameter into which effects of both the amorphous structure and the penetrant size are well incorporated. It was confirmed that the penetrant diffusion is intimately associated with the amorphous structure of polymers. 相似文献

Monte-Carlo calculations have been performed for positively charged argon clusters in the temperature range between 10 K and 40 K using two different models (one with a dimer ion core, the other one with a trimer ion). The argon-argon interaction potential stems from empirical data, the ion-neutral atoms potential is determined by ab initio MRD-CI calculations. Special stability is found for clusters sizesn=13, 19, 23 and 25/26 atoms using the ‘trimeric core model’ and for those withn=14,n=17,n=20 using the ‘dimeric core model’. The geometrical structure of the clusters is given and the construction principles are discussed in light of the interactions among neutral argon atoms and the ion-neutral atoms interaction. 相似文献

A density functional molecular dynamics study of the bonding and stability of Mg
n
clusters (n=2−13)
A study of the structure and the bonding nature of Mg clusters having 2 to 13 atoms has been made using the density functional molecular dynamics method within the local density approximation. The calculated lowest energy structures can be described in terms of a tetrahedron and a trigonal prism. Mg4 and Mg10 are magic clusters and Mg13 is neither an icosahedron nor a cuboctahedron. The bonding nature varies from atom to atom in a cluster and the transition from weakly bonded dimer to bulk like metallic behaviour is oscillatory and slow. 相似文献

Geometries and dissociation energies of water molecules on Al(n) (n = 2-25) clusters were investigated using density functional theory with all electron relativistic spin-polarized calculations under the generalized gradient approximation. An extensive structure search was performed to identify the low-energy conformations of Al(n)H(2)O complexes for each size. Optimal adsorption sites were assigned for low-energy isomers of the clusters. Size and site specific dependences were studied for the Al(n)H(2)O complexes in stabilities, geometries, adsorption energies, dissociation energies, Al-O bond lengths, and other characteristic quantities. The stabilities and geometries revealed that H atom in H(2)O is not inclined to bond with Al atoms. The most stable Al(n)H(2)O configurations for each size tend to correspond to the most stable bare Al(n) cluster except of Al(6) and Al(24) clusters. The HO bond lengths increase generally 0.01 ? with respect to the isolated H(2)O in all of the adsorption complexes. The dissociation energy of an isolated H(2)O into HO and H was 5.39 eV, which decreased about two-thirds to the energy range of 0.83-2.12 eV with the help of Al(n) clusters. In spite of the fluctuations, the dissociation energies of Al(n)H(2)O complexes rise with the size increasing as a whole. In addition, we also found that the bare Al(n) clusters with high vertical ionization potentials usually have high dissociation energies of H(2)O in the corresponding adsorption models. The energetically preferred spin-multiplicity of all the odd-n Al(n)H(2)O complexes is doublet, and it is singlet for all the even-n complexes with exception of Al(2)H(2)O which is triplet. 相似文献

The structural and electronic effects of isoelectronic substitution by Ag and Cu atoms on gold cluster anions in the size range between 13 and 15 atoms are studied using a combination of photoelectron spectroscopy and first-principles density functional calculations. The most stable structures of the doped clusters are compared with those of the undoped Au clusters in the same size range. The joint experimental and theoretical study reveals a new C(3v) symmetric isomer for Au(13)(-), which is present in the experiment, but has hitherto not been recognized. The global minima of Au(14)(-) and Au(15)(-) are resolved on the basis of comparison between experiment and newly computed photoelectron spectra that include spin-orbit effects. The coexistence of two isomers for Au(15)(-) is firmly established with convincing experimental evidence and theoretical calculations. The overall effect of the isoelectronic substitution is minor on the structures relative to those of the undoped clusters, except that the dopant atoms tend to lower the symmetries of the doped clusters. 相似文献

The fragmentation dynamics of argon clusters ionized by electron impact is investigated for initial cluster sizes up to n = 11 atoms. The dynamics of the argon atoms is modeled using a mixed quantum-classical method in which the nuclei are treated classically and the transitions between electronic states quantum mechanically. The potential-energy surfaces are derived from a diatomics-in-molecules model with the addition of the induced dipole-induced dipole and spin-orbit interactions. The results show extensive and fast fragmentation. The dimer is the most abundant ionic fragment, with a proportion increasing from 66% for n = 2 to a maximum of 95% for n = 6 and then decreasing down to 67% for n = 11. The next abundant fragment is the monomer for n < 7 and the trimer otherwise. The parent ion dissociation lifetimes are all in the range of 1 ps. Long-lived trajectories appear for initial cluster sizes of seven and higher, and favor the formation of the larger fragments (trimers and tetramers). Our results show quantitative agreement with available experimental results concerning the extensive character of the fragmentation: Ar+ and Ar2(+) are the only ionic fragments for sizes up to five atoms; their overall proportion is in quantitative agreement for all the studied sizes; Ar2(+) is the main fragment for all sizes; stable Ar3(+) fragments only appear for n > or = 5, and their proportion increases smoothly with cluster size from there. However, the individual ionic monomer and dimer fragment proportions differ. The experimental ones exhibit oscillations with initial cluster size, with a slight tendency to decrease on average for the monomer. In contrast our results show a monotonic, systematic evolution, similar to what was found in our earlier studies on neon and krypton clusters. Several hypotheses are discussed in order to find the origin of this discrepancy. Finally, the metastable II(1/2)u and II(1/2)g states of Ar2(+) are found to decay with a lifetime of 3.5 and 0.1 ps, respectively, due to spin-orbit coupling. The difference with the commonly accepted microsecond range value for rare-gas dimer ions could originate from the role of autoionizing states in the formation of the parent ions. 相似文献

Ultrafast excited-state intermolecular proton transfer (PT) reactions in 7-azaindole(methanol)(n) (n = 1-3) [7AI(MeOH)(n=1-3)] complexes were performed using dynamics simulations. These complexes were first optimized at the RI-ADC(2)/SVP-SV(P) level in the gas phase. The ground-state structures with the lowest energy were also investigated and presented. On-the-fly dynamics simulations for the first-excited state were employed to investigate reaction mechanisms and time evolution of PT processes. The PT characteristics of the reactions were confirmed by the nonexistence of crossings between S(ππ*) and S(πσ*) states. Excited-state dynamics results for all complexes exhibit excited-state multiple-proton transfer (ESmultiPT) reactions via methanol molecules along an intermolecular hydrogen-bonded network. In particular, the two methanol molecules of a 7AI(MeOH)(2) cluster assist the excited-state triple-proton transfer (ESTPT) reaction effectively with highest probability of PT. 相似文献

Hydrogen-bonded interactions in para-substituted calix[n]arenes (CX[n]) (n = 4, 5) and their thia analogues are analyzed using the recently proposed molecular tailoring approach. The cooperative contribution toward the hydrogen-bonding network within the CX[5] host is shown to be nearly 5 times larger than that in its thia analogue. Hydrogen bond strengths in the O-H···O network are enhanced on substitution of an electron-donating group. The cooperativity contributions are reflected in the electron density at the bond critical point in the quantum theory of atoms in molecules. 相似文献

From distance dependent tight-binding molecular dynamics simulations, we systematically study the Na n +Na n collision dynamics around the first two closed shells (n=8 and 20). We investigate the stability of sodium cluster dimers (Na n )2, for many events with random relative orientation at finite temperature, various impact parameters and incident energies. We find that (Na8)2, (Na9)2, (Na19)2 and (Na20)2 can exist during about 3000 fs in central collisions while they can exist up to about ten thousands fs in peripheral collisions with larger impact parameters in fusion mechanism at c.o.m energy per atomE cm/n=0.025 eV. We observe that the lower the incident energy, the longer the lifetime of the cluster dimers in both central and peripheral collisions. There is no apparent difference in the dynamical stability of (Na8)2 and (Na9)2, (Na19)2 and (Na20)2 although (Na8)2 and (Na20)2 are respectively slightly colder than (Na9)2 and (Na19)2 for the same incident energy per atom and the same impact parameter. 相似文献

The electronic properties of germanium and tin clusters containing a transition- or lanthanide-metal atom from group 3, 4, or 5, MGe(n) (M = Sc, Ti, V, Y, Zr, Nb, Lu, Hf, and Ta) and MSn(n) (M = Sc, Ti, Y. Zr, and Hf), were investigated by anion photoelectron spectroscopy at 213 nm. In the case of the group 3 elements Sc, Y, and Lu, the threshold energy of electron detachment of MGe(n)(-) exhibits local maxima at n = 10 and 16, while in the case of the group 4 elements Ti, Zr, and Hf, it exhibits a local minimum only at n = 16, associated with the presence of a small bump in the spectrum. A similar behavior is observed for MSn(n)(-) around n = 16, and these electronic characteristics of MGe(n) and MSn(n) are closely related to those of MSi(n). Compared to MSi(n), however, the larger cavity size of a Ge(n) cage allows metal atom encapsulation at a smaller size n. A cooperative effect between the electronic and geometric structures of clusters with a large cavity of Ge(16) or Sn(16) is discussed together with the results of experiments that probe their geometric stability via their reactivity to H(2)O adsorption. 相似文献

Relative triple differential cross section for the coplanar asymmetric (e, 2e) reaction in argon have been measured at 1.5 KeV incident energy and 40 eV ejected electron energy in several kinematics. Depending on the scattering angle, ? a , the chosen kinematics select either ionising collisions belonging to the Bethe ridge (? a =9.2°) or processes in the intermediate region between the pure dipolar and binary regimes. The more relevant finding is the presence of a minimum in the recoil lobe, almost opposite to the direction of the momentum transfer. This feature is qualitatively explained by a first Born model, which describes the ejected electron by a Coulomb wave-function. This result suggests that in the investigated kinematics the interaction of the slow ejected electron with the residual ion is the dominant effect beyond the first order electron-electron interactions. 相似文献

The dynamics of O((3)P) + CO(2) collisions at hyperthermal energies were investigated experimentally and theoretically. Crossed-molecular-beams experiments at = 98.8 kcal mol(-1) were performed with isotopically labeled (12)C(18)O(2) to distinguish products of nonreactive scattering from those of reactive scattering. The following product channels were observed: elastic and inelastic scattering ((16)O((3)P) + (12)C(18)O(2)), isotope exchange ((18)O + (16)O(12)C(18)O), and oxygen-atom abstraction ((18)O(16)O + (12)C(18)O). Stationary points on the two lowest triplet potential energy surfaces of the O((3)P) + CO(2) system were characterized at the CCSD(T)/aug-cc-pVTZ level of theory and by means of W4 theory, which represents an approximation to the relativistic basis set limit, full-configuration-interaction (FCI) energy. The calculations predict a planar CO(3)(C(2v), (3)A') intermediate that lies 16.3 kcal mol(-1) (W4 FCI excluding zero point energy) above reactants and is approached by a C(2v) transition state with energy 24.08 kcal mol(-1). Quasi-classical trajectory (QCT) calculations with collision energies in the range 23-150 kcal mol(-1) were performed at the B3LYP/6-311G(d) and BMK/6-311G(d) levels. Both reactive channels observed in the experiment were predicted by these calculations. In the isotope exchange reaction, the experimental center-of-mass (c.m.) angular distribution, T(θ(c.m.)), of the (16)O(12)C(18)O products peaked along the initial CO(2) direction (backward relative to the direction of the reagent O atoms), with a smaller isotropic component. The product translational energy distribution, P(E(T)), had a relatively low average of = 35 kcal mol(-1), indicating that the (16)O(12)C(18)O products were formed with substantial internal energy. The QCT calculations give c.m. P(E(T)) and T(θ(c.m.)) distributions and a relative product yield that agree qualitatively with the experimental results, and the trajectories indicate that exchange occurs through a short-lived CO(3)* intermediate. A low yield for the abstraction reaction was seen in both the experiment and the theory. Experimentally, a fast and weak (16)O(18)O product signal from an abstraction reaction was observed, which could only be detected in the forward direction. A small number of QCT trajectories leading to abstraction were observed to occur primarily via a transient CO(3) intermediate, albeit only at high collision energies (149 kcal mol(-1)). The oxygen isotope exchange mechanism for CO(2) in collisions with ground state O atoms is a newly discovered pathway through which oxygen isotopes may be cycled in the upper atmosphere, where O((3)P) atoms with hyperthermal translational energies can be generated by photodissociation of O(3) and O(2). 相似文献

Temperature-dependent gas-phase reaction kinetics measurements and equilibrium thermodynamics under multicollision conditions in conjunction with ab initio DFT calculations were employed to determine the binding energies of carbon monoxide to triatomic silver-gold binary cluster cations and anions. The binding energies of the first CO molecule to the trimer clusters increase with increasing gold content and with changing charge from negative to positive. Thus, the reactivity of the binary clusters can be sensitively tuned by varying charge state and composition. Also, multiple CO adsorption on the clusters was investigated. The maximum number of adsorbed CO molecules was found to strongly depend on cluster charge and composition as well. Most interestingly, the cationic carbonyl complex Au(3)(CO)(4)(+) is formed at cryogenic temperature, whereas for the anion, only two CO molecules are adsorbed, leading to Au(3)(CO)(2)(-). All other trimer clusters adsorb three CO molecules in the case of the cations and are completely inert to CO in our experiment in the case of the anions. 相似文献

Laser-ablated Au atoms have been co-deposited with CO molecules in solid argon to produce gold carbonyls. In addition to the previously reported Au(CO)n (n = 1, 2) and Au2(CO)2 molecules, small gold cluster monocarbonyls Au(n)CO (n = 2-5) are formed on sample annealing and characterized using infrared spectroscopy on the basis of the results of the isotopic substitution and CO concentration change and comparison with theoretical predictions. Of particular interest is that the mononuclear gold carbonyls, Au(CO)n (n = 1, 2), are favored under the experimental conditions of higher CO concentration and lower laser energy, whereas the yields of the gold cluster carbonyls, Au(n)CO (n = 2-5) and Au2(CO)2, remarkably increase with lower CO concentration and higher laser power. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations have been performed on these molecules and the corresponding small naked gold clusters. The identities of these gold carbonyls Au(n)CO (n = 1-5) and Au(n)(CO)2 (n = 1, 2) are confirmed by the good agreement between the experimental and calculated vibrational frequencies, relative absorption intensities, and isotopic shifts. 相似文献

Which is the first step in the decomposition process of nitromethane is a controversial issue, proton dissociation or C-N bond scission. We applied reactive force field (ReaxFF) molecular dynamics to probe the initial decomposition mechanisms of nitromethane. By comparing the impact on (010) surfaces and without impact (only heating) for nitromethane simulations, we found that proton dissociation is the first step of the pyrolysis of nitromethane, and the C-N bond decomposes in the same time scale as in impact simulations, but in the nonimpact simulation, C-N bond dissociation takes place at a later time. At the end of these simulations, a large number of clusters are formed. By analyzing the trajectories, we discussed the role of the hydrogen bond in the initial process of nitromethane decompositions, the intermediates observed in the early time of the simulations, and the formation of clusters that consisted of C-N-C-N chain/ring structures. 相似文献
