The properties of the aluminum clusters including binding energy, the second difference in energy, HOMO-LUMO gap, especially fragmentation energies and ionization potentials, were analyzed. The main products from the dissociations of aluminum cluster ions are shown to be Al + Al^+n-1 for the larger clusters, and Al^+ +Aln-1 for the smaller ones. And, the calculated ionization potentials are consistent with the experiment data.展开更多
