摘要
The most stable geometries (lowest energy configurations) as well as the lowest-lying isomers of Au(n), n = 2-6, clusters are determined through ab initio calculations of the cluster total energy. It is found that Hartree-Fock plus second-order perturbation method of Moller-Plesset combined with a double-zeta basis set and an 11 valence electrons relativistic pseudopotential provide reliable results for a qualitative and quantitative analysis of the structures. Two-dimensional planar configurations are obtained as the lowest energy structures for all the gold cluster sizes investigated. Vibrational frequencies for all the investigated isomers were obtained.
