Аннотация
В работе предложено существование нуль-мерной фуллереноподобной формы иодида гадолиния (III). Сконструированы модели фуллеренов GdI3 тетраэдрической, октаэдрической и икосаэдрической морфологии с размерами до ~1000 атомов. Методом функционала электронной плотности исследованы их стабильность и электронные свойства. Аналогично другим известным неорганическим фуллеренам и нанотрубкам энергии свёртки фуллеренов GdI3 уменьшаются с увеличением радиуса и всегда оказываются больше энергий свёртки нанотрубок GdI3 тех же радиусов. Фуллерены с морфологией октаэдра или икосаэдра оказываются наиболее стабильными. Вне зависимости от размера и морфологии все рассмотренные фуллерены GdI3 являются полупроводниками с вероятно ферромагнитным типом упорядочения при сверхнизких температурах. Щели ВЗМО-НСМО в электронной структуре фуллеренов GdI3 оказываются на 1.1-1.7 эВ меньше, чем запрещённая щель для плоского монослоя GdI3.
