Add to ORKGStructures measuring several nanometers in any dimension represent a transitional scale between materials with crystalline order and molecules. Quantum confinement of the carrier wavefunction within such structures may significantly alter their electronic behavior. Additionally, the effect of surface reconstruction becomes substantial at this scale. This work investigated electronic and structural properties of silicon nanoclusters. Electrochemical etching was used to produce particles smaller than 3 nm in diameter. Electron microscopy and material analysis studies showed the particles to have a crystalline silicon core with significant structural reconstruction on the surface. Also, the clusters were found to be spherical in shape and quan...
