Probing on the Stable Structure of Silicon-Doped Charged Magnesium Nanomaterial Sensor: SiMgn±1 (N = 2−12) Clusters DFT Study

The stable structures of silicon-doped charged magnesium nanomaterial sensor, SiMgn±1 (n = 2−12) clusters, were systematically investigated using the CALYPSO approach coupled with the density functional theory (DFT). The growth mechanism of SiMgn±1 (n = 2−12) nanosensors shows that the tetrahedral a...
