AbstractThe geometry, electronic structure, and reactivity with O2molecules of an isolated W@Si12cluster have been investigated by first principles simulations. The results confirm that O2can weakly adsorb on the HP-W@Si12cage with a binding energy of 0.004 to 0.027 eV. O2may dissociate on the cluster by overcoming energy barrier of at least 0.593 eV. However, this is a spin-forbidden reaction, rendering the high inertness of the HP-W@Si12cluster toward O2. These results confirm the high inertness of the W@Si12cluster toward O2molecules in ambient conditions, in close agreement with experimental observations of magic cluster of W@Si12. © 2012 Elsevier B.V.
