Size-selected Wn clusters can be deposited firmly on a graphite (0001) surface using a novel technique, where the positive ions (of the same metal atom species) embedded on the graphite surface by ion implantation, act as anchors. The size selected metal clusters can then soft land on this anchored surface m [Hayakawa et al., 2009]. We have carried out a systematic theoretical study of the adsorption of Wn (n = 1-6) clusters on anchored graphite (0001) surface, using state-of-art spin-polarized density functional approach. In our first-principles calculations, the graphite (0001) surface has been suitably modeled as a slab separated by large vacuum layers. Wn clusters bond on clean graphite (0001) surface with a rather weak Van-der-Waals interaction. However, on the anchored graphite (0001) surface, the Wn clusters get absorbed at the defect site with a much larger adsorption energy. We report here the results of our first-principles investigation of this supported Wn cluster system, along with their reactivity trend as a function of the cluster size (n).

The electronic structure, martensitic transformation and magnetic properties of [Formula: see text] Heusler alloy were studied by first-principles calculations. It is found that the stable structure of austenitic [Formula: see text] is the ferromagnetic [Formula: see text] structure, and a martensitic transformation is possible to occur with the distortion degree of 1.26. By the analysis of the electronic structure, some results of magnetic moment are consistent with previous theoretical calculations.

The composition dependences of the density of states in Co- and Cr-doped Ni-Mn-Sn Heusler alloys are investigated by using first principles calculations. The off-stoichiometric compositions are realized by the coherent-potential approximation. We have shown that the spin polarization decreases with increasing Cr and Co concentrations. While, the total magnetic moment was found to decrease (increase) with increasing Cr (Co) concentration, respectively.

A new Heusler alloyV2NiGawith Hg2CuTi-type structure was investigated by first-principles calculations. The band structures and magnetic properties have been studied. The alloy has a total magnetic moment of 1.05μBper unit cell on first-principles calculations which is in agreement with theSlaterPauling(SP) rule. The magnetic moments ofV(1) atom andV(2) atom are 1.28μBand-0.44μBrespectively, so the alloy is a ferrimagnetism.
