摘要：

We have investigated the ground-state geometries of aluminum-doped sodium clusters NanAl (n=1,10) using an ab initio molecular-dynamics method. It is seen that a single Al impurity atom affects significantly the geometries of small Na-n (n less than or equal to 6) clusters, whereas the effect is less pronounced for large clusters. Our results show an early appearance of nonplanar ground-state geometries and it is observed that for n greater than or equal to 6 the Al atom gets trapped inside the Na cage. The stability of these clusters has been examined from the systematic analysis of energetics. This indicates Na5Al and Na7Al having 8 and 10 valence electrons to be the stable clusters.
