摘要
We compute accurate approximations of the electronic states near the gap in a very large and realistic model of a-Si. The spatial structure of the states is computed explicitly and discussed. The character of the local to the extended (Anderson) transition in amorphous Si is described. The density of states, the conductivity, and doping are discussed.
