The electronic structure of SiO2: A review of recent spectroscopic and theoretical advances
TL;DR: Experimental and theoretical progress in understanding the electronic structure of SiO2 is critically reviewed in this article, where relatively basic introductions to both the experimental and theoretical methods are provided, as well as a review of some of the most interesting results.
Journal ArticleDOI
Silicon dioxide and the chalcogenide semiconductors; similarities and differences
TL;DR: In this article, the authors examine current hypotheses about the optical and electrical properties of amorphous chalcogenide semiconductors, and examine whether they can be extended to explain some of the properties of silicon dioxide.

Orbital interactions in phyllosilicates: perturbations of an idealized two-dimensional, infinite silicate frame
William F. Bleam,Roald Hoffmann +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that rotation and tilting distortions of the ∞ 2 [Si2O 5 2− ] frame have little influence on orbital interactions within the frame.

X-ray spectroscopic investigation of the electronic structure of α-quartz and stishovite (SiO2)
TL;DR: In this paper, the silicon K and L2,3 X-ray emission bands of stishovite (tetragonal SiO2, 6:4 co-ordination) and α-quartz (hexagonal Si O2, 4:2 co-coordination) were compared with theoretical band structure calculations and good overall agreement was found.
