| Resumo: | The effects of electron-electron correlations are included in the nearest-neighbor tight-binding
model of tetrahedrally coordinated covalent solids in the amorphous phase. The amorphous systems
are represented by Bethe lattices and the electron-electron interactions are parametrized for a short-
range interaction in a Hubbard-like Hamiltonian. Self-consistent solutions are obtained in the
Hartree-Fock approximation. If defects are included the self-consistent energy parameters vary
with distance away from the defect but the solution is still possible if this variation falls away rapid-
ly over a few shells. The cases of dangling bonds in Si and Si02 are considered by terminating the
Bethe lattice. The former shows localized states in the gap for two charge configurations, but Si02
shows only one. The interface between Si and Si02 is represented by joining two Bethe lattices. The
self-consistent solution shows appreciable charge transfer on to the first 0 atom and consequential
changes in the local density of states. |
