Surface states of excess electrons on water clusters

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev. Lett.; (United States)
Electron attachment to water clusters was explored by the quantum path-integral molecular-dynamics method, demonstrating that the energetically favored localization mode involves a surface state of the excess electron. The cluster size dependence, the energetics, and the charge distribution of these novel electron-cluster surface states are explored.
