Abstract: The geometric configurations, electronic structures, vibrational frequencies, and natural bond orbital (NBO) of BmN (m=2-9) clusters were studied using the B3LYP DFT method at 6-311G* level. The stabilities of the BmN (m=2-9) were analysized by means of energy difference, nucleus independent chemical shifts (NICS), and secondary energy differences of the ground state structures.

Key words: BmN clusters, Ground state structure, DFT, NICS, Stability
