description

Abstract The technique of sum rules has been used to investigate the dipole surface plasmon for K + N clusters within a Density Functional Theory and the spherical jellium model. The role played by non-local effects is discussed comparing the results obtained from different functionals. Band-structure and core-polarization effects have been phenomenologically included in the calculation by means of an electron effective mass and a dielectric constant. Comparison with recent experimental data is presented.
