Dielectric function of silicon nanoclusters: role of hydrogen
Electronic and optical properties of small silicon quantum dots having 3 to 44 atoms per dot with and without surface passivation are investigated by computer simulation using the pseudo-potential approach. An empirical pseudo-potential Hamiltonian, a plane-wave basis expansion and a basic tetrahedr...
