X Abstract

Abstract  A new method has been developed within the framework of density functional theory to aid in the study of the dielectric properties of multi-component systems, with explicit treatment of surface and interface effects. Specially, we have determined the position dependent dielectric constant profiles for Si–SiO2 and SiO2-polymer systems. We find that at regions close to surfaces and interfaces, the dielectric constant is enhanced compared to the corresponding bulk values. In interior regions, the dielectric constant approaches the corresponding bulk values. The calculated optical and static dielectric constant values of these systems are in excellent agreement with experimental results, and other more involved computational treatments.

CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic (which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments. It helps undergraduates and postgraduates. People studying for PhDs or in postdoctoral (postdoc) positions. The service is similar in scope to EndNote or RefWorks or any other reference manager like BibTeX, but it is a social bookmarking service for scientists and humanities researchers.
