Structural parameters, vibrational frequencies and thermodynamic properties have been obtained at B3LYP/LANL2DZ(d,p) level of theory. At high temperatures, mixed clusters are predicted to be thermodynamically more stable compared to mixture of homoatomic cubanes. Nitrogen-containing clusters have higher stability toward dissociation and are formed more exothermically compared to P, As analogs. Thus, mixed nitrogen clusters are expected to serve as advanced single-source precursors for CVD of mixed alloys, such as AlxGayIn1-x-yN. Variation of the Al:Ga:In ratio is possible by using higher oligomers [HMYH]n (n=6-12).",
