Abstract

The quasirelativistic CNDO/1 and EHT methods have been applied to investigate the electronic structure of {Be}125, {Be}216 and {Be}343 clusters generated by a multiplication of the unit cell. The DOS profiles and their projections were calculated. These data were correlated with the periodic crystal orbitals of the EHT and ab-initio quality, respectively, as well as with the ASW method.
