A DFT study of the chemical and optical properties of 7-atom Ag-X [X = Li, Na] nanoalloys for potential applications in opto-electronics and catalysis
In this paper, Ag atoms are substituted by X (Li, Na) atoms to form AgmX(7-m) clusters to explore their electronic, chemical and optical properties in the framework of density functional theory (DFT). The clusters are geometrically optimized without imposing symmetry and later, vibrational analysis...
