On the Electronic and Atomic Structures of Small AuN- (N = 4−14) Clusters: A Photoelectron Spectroscopy and Density-Functional Study

Abstract

We report a joint experimental and theoretical study of the electronic and atomic structures of small gold clusters with up to 14 atoms. Well-resolved photoelectron spectra were obtained for Au N - ( N = 1−14) at several photon energies. Even−odd alternations were observed, where the even-sized clusters (except Au 10 - ) exhibit an energy gap between the lowest binding energy peak and the rest of the spectrum, indicating that all the neutral even-sized clusters have closed shells. The Au 10 - spectrum reveals the existence of isomers, with the ground-state cluster exhibiting an extremely high electron binding energy. Evidence of multiple isomers was also observed in the spectra of N = 4, 8, 12, and 13. The structures of the gold cluster anions in the range N = 4−14 were investigated using first-principles simulations. A striking feature of the anionic clusters in this range is the occurrence of planar ground-state structures, which were predicted in earlier theoretical studies (Häkkinen, H.; et al. Phys. Rev. Lett. 2002, 89, 033401) and observed in ion-mobility experiments (Furche, F.; et al. J. Chem. Phys. 2002, 117, 6982) and the existence of close-lying isomers. The calculated electron detachment energies and density of states were compared with the measured data, which confirmed the ground-state structures of the anions. It is found that the main isomers observed experimentally indeed consist of planar clusters up to Au 12 -, whereas for Au 13 - and Au 14 - the theoretical results from three-dimensional isomers agree better with the experiment, providing further support for the 2D to 3D structural transition at Au 12 -, as concluded from previous ion mobility experiments. We also find that small neutral clusters exhibit a tendency to form two-dimensional structures up to a size of 13 atoms.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
