Structural Features That Stabilize ZnO Clusters: An Electronic Structure Approach

We show that a simple approach to building small computationally inexpensive clusters offers insights on specific structural motifs that stabilize the electronic structure of ZnO. All-electron calculations on ZniOi needle (i = 6, 9, 12, 15, and 18) and plate (i = 9 and 18) clusters within the densit...
