Abstract
The electronic structure and stability in binary and ternary aluminum-bismuth-nitrogen nanoclusters up to six atoms are studied using density functional theory (DFT). The lowest energy geometries were obtained by sampling the geometrical space with a Monte Carlo method and geometry optimizations, at DFT level, with M06L functional. The clusters stability is analyzed using formation and fragmentation energies. Our results show that a high concentration of nitrogen presents a tendency to form nitrogen clusters. highest occupied molecular orbital-lowest unoccupied molecular orbital gaps show the well-known oscillation as the number of atoms is increased. Bonding between Al, Bi, and N has mainly a π character. Bismuth and aluminum atoms tend to promote high multiplicity states in small clusters. These new binary and ternary materials provide a potential new field in optoelectronics and high energetic material compounds. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
