Abstract

Ab initio Hartree-Fock calculations have been performed on a hydrogen molecule in silicon crystal using a cluster model of Si10H16. The hydrogen molecule is stable at a tetrahedral site of silicon. A calculated vibrational frequency of the hydrogen molecule is in reasonable agreement with the experimentally determined frequency of H2 in the silicon crystal.
