Abstract
A rereading of the Fumi and Tosi paper on the ionic sizes and Born repulsive parameters in the alkali halides family led us to draw a parallelism with recent total-energy calculations for semiconductors, wherethe Coulombic interactions are substituted by a semi-empirical tight-binding estimation of the covalent attraction and the repulsive term is still of Huggins-Mayer form. We find that for crystalline silicon the hardness parameter rho is surprisingly the same as for the alkali halidesI documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
