Abstract

Electronic shell structures of Au 12,13, Ag12,13, Al12,13 and Al 12Si of icosahedral symmetry are discussed based on self-consistent local density functional calculations using the norm-conserving pseudopotential in the linear combination of atomic orbitals method. The formation of cluster dimers is studied by applying the Harris energy functional scheme.
