Abstract
Hartree-Fock calculations coupled with second-order many-body perturbation theory have been performed to study binding energies, localization, and excitation properties of an excess electron in various alkali halide clusters, , , and Lin (n=2,4,5,14). The binding energies agree well with recent experimental data and three different modes of localization are corroborated. The position of the F-center absorption band in clusters is verified, but not for . New absorption bands for and clusters are predicted.
