Electronic structure of deposited monosized metal-clusters

  • Published:
Zeitschrift für Physik D Atoms, Molecules and Clusters

Abstract

Monosized Pt- and Au-clusters deposited on silica substrates are analyzed by photoelectron spectroscopy. The 4f-core-level energies and the valence electronic states depend on the cluster size and on the element. Au shows more uniform behavior for cluster sizes between 1 and 7 atoms than Pt does. Both materials are not yet metallic for clusters containing only a few atoms.
