Abstract

Mechanism of vacancy defect formation on the surface of two types of BS: triangular BS (TBS), α-sheet (αBS) have been calculated within the model of molecular cluster with the use of quantum chemical MNDO scheme. The process of atomic vacancy formation of BS has been modeled by step-by-step abstraction of one central boron atom. Incremental method allowed us to build energy curves for vacancy formation process. The process of vacancy migration on the BS surface has also have been investigated, and more probable paths of migration have been found.
