Scaling size of the interplay between quantum confinement and surface related effects in nanostructured silicon

Si nanocrystals (NCs) embedded in a SiO2 matrix provide an exemplar curved nanostructured interface to evidence the competition between surface states and quantum confinement (QC) effects. The study of the energy band alignment as a function of NCs size (
