Neutron rich nuclei close to shell closures play an important role on recent nuclear structure studies since they allow to search for possible modifications of single-particle energies, thus a possible shell evolution with increasing N/Z ratio. Their high-spin states will be unique observable in order to understand the size and eventually the evolution of the energy gaps far from stability. In such context, the {sup 83}As, {sup 82}Ge, and {sup 81}Ga nuclei located in the {sup 78}Ni region have been studied in Legnaro National Laboratory (LNL) and we will present our experimental results on the single-particle structure of these nuclei as well as the evolution of the N = 50 shell gap size.
