Abstract

We construct transferable tight-binding parameters of silicon-hydrogen interactions, reproducing the electronic energy levels and vibrational frequencies of the silane(SiH4) molecule accurately. The potential function was rescaled with the exponential factor in order to ensure that the potential energy is smooth at an appropriate cut-off distance, which is very important in molecular-dynamics simulations. The parameters have been applied to other molecules and various surfaces such as hydrogenated Si(100) surfaces, for example, monohydride, dihydride, and (3×1) phase.
