Ge clusters in Si matrix: structure and dynamics

Résumé

We have determined by computer simulations, some structural properties of Ge clusters embedded in a Si crystalline host matrix for cluster sizes varying from » 0.5 to 1.5 nm. In order to describe inter-atomic forces we have chosen a Valence Force Field (VFF) semi-empirical potential. Next we have calculated the density of vibrational states by diagonalization of the dynamical matrix defined with the same potential. The influence of the volume/interface ratio of Ge on the vibrational properties is discussed.
