Optimum Metallic-Bond Scheme: A Quantitative Analysis of Mass Spectra of Sodium Clusters
-
Abstract
Based on the results of the optimum metallic-bond scheme for
sodium clusters, we present a quantitative analysis of the detailed features of the mass spectra of sodium clusters. We find that, in the generation of sodium clusters with various abundances, the quasi-steady processes through adding or losing a sodium atom dominate, and the quasi-steady processes through adding or losing a sodium dimer are also important to understand the detailed features of mass spectra for small clusters.
