The electronic structure of cobalt silicide clusters Co7Si7 and Si7Co7 was studied in comparison to that of Co19 and Si17 clusters under the scope of the MINDO/SR method. Clusters Co7Si7 and Si7Co7 represent the environment of a cobalt atom and that of a silicon atom in the cobalt monosilicide bulk, respectively. It is found that the Co—Si bond is essentially sp in character with an indirect participation (by electrostatic interaction) of the cobalt d orbitals. Our calculations show a charge transfer from silicon to the d orbitals of cobalt via sp-sp interaction with an internal sp-d hybridization. The theoretical density of states for cobalt silicide clusters are reported and compared with experimental results of surface spectroscopies. © 1992 by John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
