摘要
We have attempted to find the putative global minimum structures of Morse clusters for cluster size N = 81-160 as a function of the range of the potential (with potential range rho(0) >= 3.0). Moreover, compared to the results for N <= 80 listed in the Cambridge Cluster Database, a number of new putative global minima are given. A structural and conformational analysis of M-100 for different rho(0) was given. The sequences of the global minima as a function of rho(0) and N were studied, and the zero temperature "phase diagram" was given for an overall view of how the global minima depend upon N and rho(0).
