      B3Al4+: A Three-Dimensional Molecular Reuleaux Triangle (2024) 

      Bai, Li-Xia; Orozco-Ic, Mesías; Zarate, Ximena; Sundholm, Dage; Pan, Sudip; Guo, Jin-Chang; Merino, Gabriel (MDPI, 2022)
      We systematically explore the potential energy surface of the B3Al4+ combination of atoms. The putative global minimum corresponds to a structure formed by an Al4 square facing a B3 triangle. Interestingly, the dynamical ...

      Exploring the Size-Dependent Hydrogen Storage Property on Ti-Doped Bn Clusters by Diatomic Deposition: Temperature Controlled H2 Release (2021) 

      Rodríguez-Kessler, P. L.; Rodríguez-Domínguez, Adán R.; MacLeod-Carey, Desmond; Munõz-Castro, Alvaro (John Wiley and Sons Inc, 2021)
      The hydrogen storage properties of Ti-doped Bn ((Formula presented.)) clusters are investigated by using the “diatomic deposition method” with further evaluation by density functional theory computations. The results show ...

      Planar Elongated B12 Structure in M3B12 Clusters (M = Cu-Au) (2024) 

      Solar-Encinas, José; Vásquez-Espinal, Alejandro; Leyva-Parra, Luis; Yañez, Osvaldo; Inostroza, Diego; Valenzuela, Maria Luisa; Orellana, Walter; Tiznado, William (MDPI, 2023)
      Here, it is shown that the M3B12 (M = Cu-Au) clusters’ global minima consist of an elongated planar B12 fragment connected by an in-plane linear M3 fragment. This result is striking since this B12 planar structure is not ...
