Calculation of the Electronic Structure of Silicon Nanocrystals
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 28 February 2011
Abstract
The densities of states for Si nanocrystals with diameters between 15 and 35 Å are calculated using a time-dependent algorithm within the tight-binding approximation [1]. The calculated effects of surface termination and surface relaxation on the electronic properties of Si are shown. The variation in band-gap with cluster size is calculated for clusters up to 60 Å in diameter.
