摘要
The chemisorption of one monolayer Ag atoms on an ideal Si(100) surface is studied by using the self-consistent tight-binding linear muffin-tin orbital method. The adsorption energies (E-ad) of different sites are calculated. It is found that the adsorbed Ag atoms are more favorable on C site (fourfold site) than on any other sites on Si(100) surface, the polar covalent bond is formed between Ag atom and surface Si atom, a Ag and Si mixed layer does not exist and does form an abrupt interface at the Ag-Si(100) interface. This is in agreement with the experiment results. The layer-projected density of states is calculated and compared with that of the clean surface. The charge transfer is also investigated. Comparing with the Au/Si(100) system, the interaction is weaker between Ag and Si than between An and Si. (c) 2006 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
