Abstract
The physicochemical properties of small metal clusters strongly depend on their precise geometry. Determining such geometries, however, is challenging, particularly for clusters formed by multiple elements. In this work, we combine infrared multiple photon dissociation spectroscopy and density functional theory calculations to investigate the lowest-energy structures of Pd doped gold clusters, PdAu n-1 + (n ≤ 10). The high-quality experimental spectra allow for an unambiguous determination of the structures adopted by the clusters. Our results show that the Pd-Au interaction is so large that the structures of PdAu n-1 + and Au n + are very different. Pd doping induces a 2D to 3D transition at much smaller cluster sizes than for pure Au n + clusters. PdAu n-1 + clusters are three-dimensional from n = 4, whereas for Au n + this transition only takes place at n = 7. Despite the strong Au-Pd interaction, the Au n-1 + cluster geometries remain recognizable in PdAu n-1 + up to n = 7. This is particularly clear for PdAu6 +. In PdAu8 + and PdAu9 +, Pd triggers major rearrangements of the Au clusters, which adopt pyramidal shapes. For PdAu4 + we find a geometry that was not considered in previous studies, and the geometry found for PdAu8 + does not correspond to the lowest-energy structure predicted by DFT, suggesting kinetic trapping during formation. This work demonstrates that even with the continuous improvement of computational methods, unambiguous assignment of cluster geometries still requires a synergistic approach, combining experiment and computational modelling.

RSC Adv 2021; 11:29186-29195.

Abstract
The catalytic activity of metal clusters can be easily tuned by their size, charge state, or the introduction of dopant atoms. Here, the dopant-, charge- and size-dependent propene adsorption on gold (Au n +) and yttrium doped gold (Au n-1Y+) clusters (n = 4-20) was investigated using combined gas-phase reaction studies and density functional theory computations. The increased charge transfer between the cluster and propene in the cationic clusters considerably enhances the propene binding on both pure and yttrium-doped species, compared to their neutral cluster counterparts, while yttrium-doping lowers the propene binding strength in a size-dependent way compared to the pure gold clusters. Chemical bonding and energy decomposition analysis indicate that there is no covalent bond between the cluster and propene. The preferred propene binding site on a cluster is indicated by the large lobes of its LUMO, together with the low coordination number of the adsorption site. In small yttrium-doped gold clusters propene can not only bind to the electron-deficient yttrium atom, but also to the partially positively-charged gold atoms. Therefore, by controlling the charge of the clusters, as well as by introducing yttrium dopants, the propene binding strength can be tuned, opening the route for new catalytic applications.

Abstract
With the help of computational chemistry tools, three non-fullerene acceptors, which are 2-methylene-malononitrile (M-1), 2-(3-methyl-5-methylene-2-thioxothiazolidin-4-ylidene) malononitrile (M-2) and 1-methyl-5-methylene-2,6-dioxo-1,2,5,6-tetrahydropyridine-3-carbonitrile (M-3), are designed with naphthalene diimide (NDI) central unit. Their different photovoltaic and optoelectronic properties like absorption spectrum, electrons density, solubility strength, reorganization energies, % ETC from donor to acceptor part, excitation energies, oscillating strength, morphology and crystallinity of device for constructing the thin film bulk hetro junction devices were computed at the WB97XD/6-31 G (d, p) level of density functional theory (DFT). Expected open circuit voltages of designed molecules are high as 4.05 eV to 4.49 eV, which are significantly larger than that of the previously reported 3-methyl-5-methylene-2-thioxothiazolidin-4-one (R) with the value of 3.60 eV at the zero current level. Charge carrier mobilities of designed molecules are high due to having low re-organization energies varying from 0.0163 eV to 0.0280 eV for electron and 0.0160 eV to 0.0190 eV for hole, strong absorption properties between the 420 nm to 550 nm in chloroform and 400 nm to 540 nm in gas phase conditions, respectively.

Abstract
The dopant and size-dependent propene adsorption on neutral gold (Aun ) and yttrium-doped gold (Aun-1 Y) clusters in the n=5-15 size range are investigated, combining mass spectrometry and gas phase reactions in a low-pressure collision cell and density functional theory calculations. The adsorption energies, extracted from the experimental data using an RRKM analysis, show a similar size dependence as the quantum chemical results and are in the range of ≈0.6-1.2 eV. Yttrium doping significantly alters the propene adsorption energies for n=5, 12 and 13. Chemical bonding and energy decomposition analysis showed that there is no covalent bond between the cluster and propene, and that charge transfer and other non-covalent interactions are dominant. The natural charges, Wiberg bond indices, and the importance of charge transfer all support an electron donation/back-donation mechanism for the adsorption. Yttrium plays a significant role not only in the propene binding energy, but also in the chemical bonding in the cluster-propene adduct. Propene preferentially binds to yttrium in small clusters (n<10), and to a gold atom at larger sizes. Besides charge transfer, relaxation also plays an important role, illustrating the non-local effect of the yttrium dopant. It is shown that the frontier molecular orbitals of the clusters determine the chemical bonding, in line with the molecular-like electronic structure of metal clusters.

Abstract
Action spectroscopy with inert gas messengers is commonly used for the characterization of aggregates in the gas phase. The messengers, often rare gas atoms or D2 molecules, are attached to the gas phase aggregates at low temperature. Vibrational spectra of the aggregates are measured via detection of inert gas desorption following a vibrational excitation by variable-energy infrared light. We have constructed an apparatus for the application of action spectroscopy to surfaces of solids with the aim of establishing a new method for the vibrational spectroscopy of surfaces and deposited clusters. Experiments performed for neon covered V2O3(0001) show that this method can provide information about surface vibrations. Besides the surface sensitive channel, there is also a bulk sensitive one as demonstrated with the example of CeO2(111) thin film data. Unlike infrared reflection absorption spectroscopy, normalization to a reference spectrum is not required for action spectroscopy data, and unlike high resolution electron energy loss spectroscopy, the action spectroscopy method does not suffer from moderate resolution nor from multiple excitations. Selective decoration of specific surface features with messenger atoms may be utilized to focus the spectroscopic information onto these features.

Abstract
Vibrational action spectroscopy employing infrared radiation from a free-electron laser has been successfully used for many years to study the vibrational and structural properties of gas phase aggregates. Despite the high sensitivity of this method no relevant studies have yet been conducted for solid sample surfaces. We have set up an experiment for the application of this method to such targets, using infrared light from the free-electron laser of the Fritz Haber Institute. In this Letter, we present first results of this technique with adsorbed argon and neon atoms as messengers. We were able to detect surface-located vibrations of a thin V_{2}O_{3}(0001) film on Au(111) as well as adsorbate vibrations, demonstrating that this method is highly surface sensitive. We consider that the dominant channel for desorption of the messenger atoms is direct inharmonic vibrational coupling, which is essentially insensitive to subsurface or bulk vibrations. Another channel is thermal desorption due to sample heating by absorption of infrared light. The high surface sensitivity of the nonthermal channel and its insensitivity to subsurface modes makes this technique an ideal tool for the study of surface-located vibrations.

Abstract
The magnetic moment of a single impurity atom in a finite free electron gas is studied in a combined x-ray magnetic circular dichroism spectroscopy, charge transfer multiplet calculation, and density functional theory study of size-selected free chromium-doped gold clusters. The observed size dependence of the local magnetic moment can be understood as a transition from a local moment to a mixed valence regime. This shows that the Anderson impurity model essentially describes finite systems even though the discrete density of states introduces a significant deviation from a bulk metal, and the free electron gas is only formed by less than 10 electrons. Electronic shell closure in the gold host minimizes the interaction of localized impurity states with the confined free electron gas and preserves the magnetic moment of 5 μ_{B} fully in CrAu_{2}^{+} and almost fully in CrAu_{6}^{+}. Even for open-shell species, large local moments are observed that scale with the energy gap of the gold cluster. This indicates that an energy gap in the free electron gas stabilizes the local magnetic moment of the impurity atom.
