dc.descriptionThe absorption and emission spectra of silicon nanocrystals up to 1 nm diameter including geometry optimization and the many-body effects induced by the creation of an electron-hole pair have been calculated within a first-principles framework. Starting from hydrogenated silicon clusters of different size, different Si/O bonding at the cluster surface have been considered. We found that the presence of a Si-O-Si bridge bond originates significative excitonic luminescence features in the visible range that are in fair agreement with the experimental outcomes.
