Abstract

The Ag7 metal cluster was formed in a solid neon matrix at 4 K. The identity of the cluster was established via X-band electron-spin-resonance (ESR) spectroscopy, and its structure was found to be a pentagonal bipyramid (D5h symmetry) with a 2A″2 ground state. Thus its properties are completely analogous to its Group IA alkali-metal counterparts.
