摘要
The Gaussian-2 (G2) theoretical procedure, based on ab initio molecular orbital theory, is used to calculate the energies of Si(n) and Si(n)- (n = 1-5) clusters. The G2 energies are used to derive accurate binding energies and electron affinities of these clusters. The calculated electron affinities of Si2-Si4 are in agreement to within 0.1 eV with results from recent photoelectron spectroscopic measurements.
