The structural, optical and electronic properties of silicon nanocrystals are investigated as a function of the dimension as well as the surface passivation. Both the ground- and an excited-state configuration are studied using ab-initio calculations. Atom relaxation under excitation is taken into account and related with the experimentally observed Stokes shift.

Abstract
The structural, optical and electronic properties of silicon nanocrystals are investigated as a function of the dimension as well as the surface passivation. Both the ground- and an excited-state configuration are studied using ab-initio calculations. Atom relaxation under excitation is taken into account and related with the experimentally observed Stokes shift.Pubblicazioni consigliate
