摘要：
We present a thorough theoretical investigation on pure amorphous silicon (a-Si) at room temperature, within a tight-binding molecular-dynamics scheme. We demonstrate that both structural and electronic properties of a-Si depend on the sample preparation, here obtained by quenching from the melt. Possible size effects are also investigated using 64- and 216-atom supercells. Finally, we discuss the reliability and transferability of the present scheme for large-scale simulations of covalent materials.
