Photoelectron spectroscopy and density functional calculations of FenBO2− clusters

“…The BO 2 radical is a prototypical linear Renner-Teller molecule, and its spectroscopy has been studied extensively in the past decades. [23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38][39][40] Due to the involvement of Renner-Teller effect, spin-orbit coupling, Fermi resonance, and anharmonicities, the spectroscopy of BO 2 is very complex and cannot be interpreted successfully with only simple theoretical treatments. For this reason, BO 2 has been considered as an ideal molecule for the theoretical study of triatomic molecules.…”

Superhalogen properties of BS2− and BSO−: photoelectron spectroscopy and theoretical calculations

“…[18][19][20] BO 2 has been studied extensively in the last decades. [21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37] It can be considered as a superhalogen because it is only one electron away from having a closed electronic shell and has a high electron affinity of 4.46 eV. 38 Recent studies show that BO 2 can be used as a building block for new superhalogens and hyperhalogens.…”
