A review on isolated cationic and neutral homoat. heavier group 15 cages and clusters, charged or non-charged assemblies of two or more elemental atoms E (E = P, As, Sb, Bi) without stabilizing (bulky) ligands. It focuses on the recent developments in the ...
In nanocatalysis, clusters deposited on solid, well-defined surfaces play an important role. For the detection of size effects it is, however, important to prepare samples consisting of deposited clusters of a single size, as their chemical properties chan ...
For the analysis of flows in compliant vessels, we propose an approach to couple the original 3D equations with a convenient 1D model. This multi-scale strategy allows for a dramatic reduction of the computational complexity and is suitable for "absorbing" ...
A review. The article deals with recent highlights in inorg. chem. published in the year 2003. The chem. of the main group elements is treated. Special emphasis is laid on the structures of clusters of IVA elements and prototypical small mols. [on SciFinde ...
The energy levels of (TiO2)2, (TiO2)3, and (TiO2H)2 clusters were calcd. using ab initio SCF methods considering both crystal and relaxed geometries. Systematic changes in the valence-level resulting from geometry relaxation are found, which may be related ...
An HMM-based speaker clustering framework is presented, where the number of speakers and segmentation boundaries are unknown \emph{a priori}. Ideally, the system aims to create one pure cluster for each speaker. The HMM is ergodic in nature with a minimum ...
We briefly summarize with 14 refs. trends in the structural and electronic properties of small clusters of Na, Mg and Si. In particular, the validity of the spherical jellium picture is discussed and the applicability of the concepts used to classify magic ...
Mass selected Ag/sub n/ clusters (n=1,7,19) from a secondary ion source have been deposited onto a Pt(111) substrate at low temperature. The surface and resulting cluster morphology have subsequently been characterized within the same UHV chamber by variab ...
We study size-selected deposition of Ag/sub 19//sup +/ clusters on Pd(100) at total kinetic energies of 20 and 95 eV using thermal energy atom scattering and molecular-dynamics simulations. Contrary to the case of Ag/sub 7/ where fragmentation is crucial t ...
Equilibrium geometries and electronic properties of neutral Cu-n (n = 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10) clusters are determined via first principles calculations which treat s and d electrons on an equal footing. Overall, we find ground state and local minimum structures ...
