Metastable silicon cluster

Clusters of the elements aluminum to thallium containing only one or two carbon atoms and strong direct element-element interactions, similar to boron rich car-baboranes, have not yet been synthesized, and also the corresponding silicon derivatives are relatively rare. To the best of our knowledge only one aluminum-silicon and one gallium-silicon cluster (1 and 2) has been reported in the literature. The reaction of metastable aluminum(I) chloride with decamethylsilicocene or with a mixture of SiCl4 and (AlCp )4, respectively, afforded black crystals of... [Pg.357]

One of the earliest studies was an MNDO-cluster treatment by Corbett et al. (1983) of the isolated interstitial hydrogen and the corresponding molecule. In this early study, the isolated H was found to be stable at the M-site in silicon. This is directly between two adjacent C-sites, where the C-site is directly between next-near-neighbor silicons. (We note that in these calculations, the C- and M-site energies are very similar.) It was not known at that time, however, that the BC site is the stable location for neutral isolated interstitial hydrogen (see Chapter 16). In the Corbett study, an H2 molecule was found to be stable (or at least, metastable) in the tetrahedral interstitial site when oriented along a (111) direction. The... [Pg.556]
