Aj. Forsyth et al., A DIELECTRIC MATRIX CALCULATION OF THE SURFACE-PLASMON ENERGY FOR THESILICON(100) SURFACE, Surface science, 358(1-3), 1996, pp. 270-273
As an extension of previous work, we present preliminary calculations
for the dielectric properties of the silicon (100) surface. In particu
lar, the \q\ - 2 pi/a(0,0,0) and \q\ - 2 pi/a(1,0,0) surface loss func
tion, and corresponding plasmon energies have been calculated within a
simple model for the silicon surface. Results are compared and contra
sted with volume plasmon calculations and experiment.
