Abstract

We propose that an oxygen molecule chemisorbed onto the silicon surface has an electronic structure corresponding to a peroxy radical. Using this model we carried out extensive theoretical calculations including electron correlation (generalized valence bond with configuration interaction) obtaining excitation energies and ionization potentials.
