Carbon-silicon binding energy



 	Dear netters,
 	We are dealing with a semiempirical model of diamond
 deposition onto a silicon substrate and we have some dificulties
 to found a suitable value for the binding energy between carbon
 and silicon atoms at the surface of the substrate.
 	Any reference about this subject will be very welcome.
 	Best wishes,
