As the layered semiconductor material WS2 in bulk is similar to graphite, it is of interest to find out whether this material might form small stable cage-like fullerene structures. In combination with density functional theory calculation and gas phase mass and photoelectron spectroscopy [1,2], certain magic clusters were deposited in soft-landing mode on Ag- and Si-substrates. In gas phase theoretically predicted 2-dimensional triangular shaped platelets of WnSm-clusters with n > 5 were detected and similar structures of MonSm were studied [3]. For first measurements deposited W1S3-, W2S6- and W5S6-clusters known as particularly stable in gas phase experiments were investigated via HREELS and XPS. These data were compared to WS2 bulk material, additionally.
