Muhammad,

When you move the two Si atoms with the dangling bond towards eachother you will create a dimer on the surface, no extra passivation by H atoms is needed, just ensure you make your slab symmetric where possible. If you google Si recontructions you should find very exact geometrical information since this has been done many times before.

Best regards,

Michael Sluydts

Thank you Pablo
But I am required to connect two Si atoms at the surface to reduce one dangling bond and then put H or may be H is not needed if both of the dangling bonds have possibility of omitting. I am reading the paper but could not understand although Fig. 2 is looking easy to understand. WHat is 2*1 or 2*2 or 2*4 ? are the super-cells like 2*1*1 or 2*2*1 etc.

    This is the same that I simplified and symmetized. If you are
    going to add H then you need set the space group as P1 (#1) so the
    H can move freely and not in a symmetrical path.

    Now, if you use my proposed structure then you can put inversion
    (SG P-1, #2) and add two H, one on each surface, but in a
    symmetric way.

    Other thing, maybe my proposed structure is too small and your
    structure is ok, but I would symmetrize as I explained in an
    earlier message.

    *Asunto:* [Wien] Reconstructed Si 100 surface
    Dear Users
    Kindly guide me how to reconstruct Si 100 layer? The Si 100
    structure is attached here with. It has two dangling bonds on both
    surfaces (Top and Bottom). My intension is to keep one dangling
    bond on the top and bottom surfaces that will be saturated by H
    addition.
