Bond dissociation energies for transition metal silicides accurately determined

Transition metal silicides are promising for future developments in electronic devices, but fundamental aspects of the chemical bonding between their transition metal atoms and silicon remain poorly understood. One of the most important, but poorly known, properties is the strength of these bonds – the thermochemical bond dissociation energy.
