Size-suppressed dielectrics of Ge nanocrystals : skin-deep quantum entrapment by Goh, Eunice S. M., Yang, H. Y., Liu, Y., Chen, Tupei, Sun, Changqing

“…Here we show that theoretical reproduction of the measured dielectric suppression of Ge nanocrystals asserts that the dielectric suppression originates from the shorter and stronger bonds at the skin-deep surface, the associated local densification and quantum entrapment of energy. …”
