Periodicity of Superatomic Hybrid Orbitals in Substituted Superatoms and Superatomic-like X@Ga<sub>12</sub> (X = Li~Kr) Clusters

A superatom is a cluster composed of a specific number of atoms. We recently found that the superatom-like X@Ga<sub>12</sub> (X = Li~Kr) clusters has the periodic energy levels of the specific orbitals 2S and 2P by means of the DV-Xα molecular orbital calculation method. This periodicity...
