Computer simulation of the surface free energy of the Si(100) surface and the line free energies associated with steps on this surface
Article Abstract:
Many atomic-level 0 K thermodynamic properties of silicon (100) surfaces are calculated from classical potential energy surfaces or from quantum ground-state Born-Oppenheimer surfaces. The methods presented for determining the surface and line free energies are exact in the sense that they realize the formal definitions of these quantities.

Metal acetylacetonate domains grown on H-terminated porous silicon at room temperature and their specific I-V behavior
Article Abstract:
A study incubated porous silicon (PS) in an organic solution of metal acetylacetonates of Mn([acac.sub.3]), Fe([acac.sub.3]), Co([acac.sub.3]) and Ni([acac.sub.2]) at room temperature. It was found that crystal-like domains spontaneously self-assembled on PS surfaces by atomic force microscopy (AFM).

Reaction of 1,2-dibromobenzene with the Si(111)-7x7 surface, a DFT study
Article Abstract:
Reaction between 1,2-dibromobenzene and the Si(111)-7x7 surface is studied theoretically on the DFT(B3LYP/6-31G(d) level. Calculations suggest that the reaction occurs spontaneously at room temperature through a covalent attachment of the intact 1,2-dibromobenzene to the silicon surface.
