摘要:

采用随机踢球模型结合密度泛函理论, 在PBEPBE/RE/SDD/Si/6-311+G(d)水平下研究了中性和阴性的硅基稀土掺杂团簇MSiq7(M=Eu, Sm, Yb; q=0, -1)的几何结构、 稳定性及电子和磁学性质. 计算结果表明, 阴性团簇的基态结构是在五角双锥的双锥侧面外法向方向加入一个Si原子而形成的3D结构, 并且稀土原子M处于五角双锥的顶点; 中性团簇的最低能结构是一个畸变的双帽八面体, 并且M原子处于八面体的赤道面上. SmSi7-团簇在这3种稀土掺杂的团簇中具有最高的平均结合能和掺杂能, 是这3种稀土掺杂团簇中最稳定的一种. Si7团簇是非磁性团簇, 但是当M原子(M=Eu, Sm, Yb) 掺入其中时, 由于镧系元素独特的原子磁性, 使其变成了磁性团簇. 此外, 还模拟了各团簇前几种低能异构体的光电子能谱.

Abstract:

The geometrical structures, relative stabilities, electronic properties and magnetism of anionic and neutral lanthanide metal-doped silicon clusters were systematically investigated by using the Saunders Kick global stochastic search technique combined with density functional theory(DFT) calculations at the PBEPBE/RE/SDD/Si/6-311+G(d) level of theory. The calculation results show that the ground state structure for anionic cluster is a 3D structure with the RE atom M sitting on top(or bottom) of the pentagonal bipyramid while adding another Si to the normal direction of it. The lowest energy structure of the neutral cluster is formed by substituting a Si atom on the equatorial surface of a distorted bicapped octahedral with an M atom. The SmSi7- cluster has the highest binding energy and doping energy in the three rare earth doped clusters, indicating that SmSi7- is the most stable cluster among them. When M atoms(M=Eu, Sm, Yb) were added into the Si7 cluster, due to their unique atomic magnetism, the non-magnetic Si7 cluster would be magnetized. In addition, the simulated photoelectron spectra(PES) of top-several isomers of each cluster were also presented, which could provide a theoretical basis for further experiments.
