Structure of the NaxClx+1− (x=1–4) clusters via ab initio genetic algorithm and photoelectron spectroscopy
Abstract
The application of the ab initio genetic algorithm with an embedded gradient has been carried out for the elucidation of global minimum structures of a series of anionic sodium chloride clusters, NaxClx+1− (x=1–4), produced in the gas phase using electrospray ionization and studied by photoelectron spectroscopy. These are all superhalogen species with extremely high electron binding energies. The vertical electron detachment energies for NaxClx+1− were measured to be 5.6, 6.46, 6.3, and 7.0 eV, for x=1–4, respectively. Our ab initio gradient embedded genetic algorithm program detected the linear global minima for NaCl2− and Na2Cl3− and three-dimensional structures for the larger species. Na3Cl4− was found to have C3v symmetry, which can be viewed as a Na4Cl4 cube missing a corner Na+ cation, whereas Na4Cl5− was found to have C4v symmetry, close to a 3×3 planar structure. Excellent agreement between the theoretically calculated and the experimental spectra was observed, confirming the obtained structures and demonstrating the power of the developed genetic algorithm technique.

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.
