摘要：

Iron clusters of bcc, fcc and icosahedral structure, up to the largest Fe(59) (bcc), Fe(55) and Fe(62) (atom- and interstitial-centered fcc), Fe55 (icosahedral), and titanium carbide (Ti(4)C(4), Ti(14)C(13)) were relaxed, within the given morphology type, on the basis of first-principles calculation in the density functional theory, using norm-conserving pseudopotentials and a basis set of strictly localized numerical functions. For TiC, moreover, the vibrational spectrum has been studied in a molecular dynamics approach. The results show inward relaxation at the cluster surface, accompanied by the enhancement of local magnetic moments in several surface layers up to similar to 3 mu(B) (in Fe), or by hardening of the Gamma-TO phonon mode (in TiC).
