Abstract

Using quasi-relativistic CNDO method the electronic structure of1[Pd14 ...n H]q clusters (n=0 or 2) with various total charges, q, is investigated for various H-H configurations. All systems are more stable for q=−2 than for q=0. Lower unit cell dimensions cause the energy stabilization of the H-H subsystem, the dihydrogen charge is more positive and the H-H bond is stronger. The results on electronic structure calculations indicate the existence of higher electron states with significant shifts of energy minima.
