abstract

  • The first excited singlet states of O=X〈 and O2X〈 point defects in silica and germania were calculated within different approaches (time-dependent density functional theory, equation-of-motion coupled-cluster singles and doubles, complete active space second-order perturbation theory, multireference configuration interaction) to simulate the photoabsorption and luminescence properties of these defects. It was found that these systems are characterized by a large Stokes shift, their first absorption bands lie in the near UV range, and the corresponding luminescence bands lie in the visible and IR ranges. © 2007 by Allerton Press, Inc.
