Abstract

On the example of the Tin and Cun clusters with n up to 4 it is shown that an orbital-free (OF) version of the density functional theory (DFT) may be used for multiatomic systems containing atoms with d-electrons. The equilibrium interatomic distances and binding energies are found close to known experimental and calculated data. The OF results for Ti-Cu dimer are in satisfactory agreement with the Kohn-Sham results.
