Equilibrium Structures and Finite Temperature Properties of Silicon Microclusters from ab initio Molecular-Dynamics Calculations
Abstract
We show that new aspects of the physics of microclusters can be investigated accurately with ab initio molecular dynamics. We present results on a number of properties of ${\mathrm{Si}}_{N}$ aggregates ($N$ up to 10) at both zero and finite temperatures. The results of dynamical simulated annealing for the ground state point to a complex growth sequence. Simulations at finite temperatures show the existence of two regimes, solidlike and liquidlike, with substantially different electronic and structural properties.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
