Tetrahexahedral binary transition metal compound sub-nanoclusters

We explore new transition metal (TM) compound sub-nanoclusters, TM8X6 (TM = Mn, Fe, Co and X = P, B, As), using density functional theory. Their optimized geometric structures show the same polyhedral structure (tetrahexahedron) independent of a kind of TM and metalloid (X), where eight TM atoms for...
