Atomic clusters, consisting of a few to a few thousand atoms, have emerged over the past 40
years as the ultimate nanoparticles, whose structure and properties can be controlled one …

The research on superhalogens has successfully completed four decades. After their
prediction in 1981 and experimental verification in 1999, such species have attracted …

Most electrolytes currently used in Li‐ion batteries contain halogens, which are toxic. In the
search for halogen‐free electrolytes, we studied the electronic structure of the current …

In this study, we proposed that homo superalkali NM 4 clusters with high tetrahedral
geometry, can be applied to develop high-performance hydrogen storage materials …

Multiply charged negative ions are seldom stable in the gas phase. Electrostatic repulsion
leads either to autodetachment of electrons or fragmentation of the parent ion. With a …

The designing and synthesis of efficient NLO materials is the demand of the century
because of their importance in the development of photo-electronic devices. Herein, we …

Super-alkalis are clusters of atoms. With ionization potentials smaller than those of the alkali
atoms, they are playing an increasing role in chemistry as highlighted by recent applications …

Superhalogenity refers to the tendency of radicals to have higher electron affinity (EA) than
halogens or anions to possess higher vertical detachment energy (VDE) than do halides …

Polycyclic hydrocarbon (PH) radicals and anions such as C9H7–, C11H7–, C13H9–, and
C15H9–generally possess low electron affinity (EA) and vertical detachment energy (VDE) …

Superatoms are clusters that mimic the chemistry of atoms and new materials with unique
properties can be synthesized from them. Superalkali NM 4 clusters with homo-and hetero …
