Abstract
The energetics of bond reconstruction at the core of a 90° partial dislocation in diamond has been studied by means of HFR-MO-LCAO-SCF computations on C5H10 and C10H18 model molecular clusters. The results obtained agree with previous VFF investigations and they confirm that the reconstructed geometry is energetically favoured with respect to the unreconstructed one.
