摘要: Abstract First principles studies on the electronic structure, stability, and magnetic properties of CrnTem (1 ≤ n ≤ 6, 1 ≤ m ≤ 8) clusters have been carried out within a density functional framework. Investigations into energetic stability indicate that Cr4Te6 Cr6Te8 are energetically stable species. The cluster is found to be nonmagnetic large HOMO-LUMO gap. Energetic not always correlated as marked by much smaller gap, magnetic, has high electron affinity 3.39 eV. enhanced adding charge donating ligands form Cr6Te8(PEt3)6 clusters.
