CLUSTER SCIENCE

(Finished Project)


A cluster is an assembly of atoms or molecules, the number of which is so large that it is rather difficult to isolate a cluster in a stable form. Clusters play an important role linking atoms or clusters with bulk. Recently, studies on cluster is attracting attention.

@

In this Project, clusters were regarded as assemblies of smaller number of atoms/ molecules, which could hardly be isolated in stable forms, and the structures and properties of clusters in vacuum, solution, solid surface and microcavities were studied.
