45. 1 ML is defined as the amount of PG that can saturate the dangling bonds of the surface Si atoms except for the dissociated H atoms. Since a PG molecule saturates two Si dangling bonds, 1 ML corresponds to half the number of the surface Si atoms.
46. To understand the origin of the energy differences we calculated two quantities: (i) density of states for R-OT and R-EB-u and (ii) the molecule distortion energies for R-OT, R-EB-u, and R-DB configurations. The calculated DOSs are very similar to each other for R-OT and R-EB-u configurations, suggesting that the electronic origin can be neglected in energetics. In calculations of the distortion energies, we replaced the Si atoms bonded to O with H atoms with the same bond angles. The O-H bond lengths are set to those of the free molecule. Then the substrate is removed and all the coordinates of the molecule are fixed. The one-shot calculation without structure relaxation would produce the distortion (strain) energy related with the molecular distortion upon adsorption. The resulting energy differences relative to R-OT are 0.39 and 0.72eV for R-EB-u and R-DB configurations, respectively. These differences are larger than the total energy (or adsorption energy) differences for R-OT, R-RB-u, and R-DB, but are on the same energy order of magnitude. Thus, the distortion energy can be the major origin for the energetics. The O-O distance in the adsorbed molecule can be a measure of such distortion because the PG molecule extends upon adsorption on the Si surface.
