The geometries and vibrational frequencies of the ground and low-lying excited states for B₃, B₃^- and B₃⁺ are determined with the energy gradient method using the polarized double-zeta(6-31G*) basis set. The stabilities for the states of B₃,B₃^- and B₃⁺ have been investigated based on the vibrational analysis. The correlation energy obtained for each state is considered with the configuration interaction (CISD+Q) technique. B₃ and B₃⁺ have stable equilateral triangle geometry, while B₃^- has stable equilateral triangle, isosceles triangle and linear geometries. The Jahn-Teller distortion for a ³E' state of B₃^- in D_3h symmetry is also discussed.
