Abstract :
In this study, the geometries of the [SiNinHn]q and [SiCunHn]q clusters, (n = 4,5,6 and q = 0,+1,-1) complexes have been optimized to form complexes with four, five and six planar and nonplanar
substituents, with negative, neutral or positive atomic charge, using Density Functional Theory (DFT) at B3LYP/6-311+G (3df, p) computational level and then their thermodynamic stability were investigated by studying the obtained smallest vibrational frequencies and binding energy.
