Geometries of doubly transition metal doped silicon clusters M(2)Sin, M-2 = Mo-2, Nb-2, Ta-2, W-2, NbMo, TaW were determined by DFT computations. Geometries of M(2)Sin in the range from 11 to 18 Si atoms change from a tubular shape to a cage and then a fused cage. The M2Si18 sizes present us with a novel structural motif, the fused cage, for silicon clusters. Such fused cages arise from a fusion of both MSi10 and MSi12 prisms followed by addition of two Si atoms. Formation and filling of electron shells contribute to the high thermodynamic stability of M2Si18 fused clusters.
