Electronic Structure of Microclusters and Defect Complexes

Abstract

A study was made of the electronic and structural properties of atomic clusters and defects in metals. Five main areas were considered: (1) magnetism of clusters, low dimensional systems and transition metal superlattices, (2) interaction of hydrogen with metals and hydrogen absorption around metal ions, (3) defects and defect complexes, (4) electronic structure of LiMgH3 class of compounds and (5) super-shell structure in clusters. The final report provides an outline of the accomplishments in each of these areas as well as the professional accomplishments.
