Abstract: | The geometries, stabilities, and electronic properties of Au
n
La (n = 2–8) clusters have been systematically investigated by using density-functional theory. The results show that the doped
La atom prefers to locate at the center site with the number of Au atom increasing from 2 to 8. Furthermore, the Au
n
La clusters are more stable than the Au
n+1 clusters. The charges transfer from La atom to Au atoms at n = 2–4, but charge-transferring is reversed at n = 5. |
