Modified Si(111) surface with designed nanostructural modifications including grown pits, nanobars and nanoislands as well as deposited hill-, diamond- and cage-like nanoclusters were studied using density-functional theory (DFT) calculations. The thermal stabilities, electronic structures and optical properties of these various nanostructural modifications of the Si(111) surface were calculated and discussed. The results indicate that the optical absorption of the modified Si(111) surface can be enhanced by these surface modifications especially when depositing diamond-like nanoclusters on the surface.
