Abstract

Electronic contributions to the optical (hyper)polarizabilities of small silicon clusters are theoretically determined. Geometries and the electronic structures of the clusters are established using the tight-binding model. The nonlinear polarizabilities are found to depend primarily on the symmetry of the cluster and prove to be high for the low-symmetry clusters. Possible experiments and applications are discussed.
