[ 1 ] - Geometric and Electronic Structures of Vanadium Sub-nano Clusters, Vn (n = 2-5), and their Adsorption Complexes with CO and O2 Ligands: A DFT-NBO Study

In this study, electronic structures of ground state of pure vanadium sub-nano clusters, Vn (n=2-5), and their interactions with small ligands for example CO and triplet O2 molecules are investigated by using density functional theory (DFT) calibration at the mPWPW91/QZVP level of theory. The favorable orientations of these ligands in interaction with pure vanadium sub-nano clusters were determ...

[ 2 ] - Why do Bimetallic Clusters have more Chemical Reactivity? Study the VnNim (2 ≤ n + m ≤ 6) Clusters as the Nano Species

This article gives you proof that bimetallic transition metal clusters with the difference in electronegativity are better catalysts than monoatomic one. To prove this fact, a study of ethylene adsorption on bimetallic clusters vanadium-nickel VnNim (2≤n+m≤6) has been demonstrated. Our result shows that hardness has a quite good linear correlation with the non-Lewis of VnNi (n=1-5) cluster (R2=...
