We report on ab initio calculations for optically excited electronic states of the 2H:Si(001)-(2x1) surface. The ground-state geometry is addressed by DFT calculations within the local-density (LDA) and generalized gradient (GGA) approximation. Based on this, the optically excited electronic states are described by many-body perturbation theory (MBPT; GW approximation and Bethe-Salpeter equation). Of particular interest are dynamical processes within the excited states that lead to photodesorption of hydrogen atoms [see the experimental results by T. Vondrak and X.-Y. Zhu, Phys. Rev. Lett. 82, 1967 (1999)]. In this work, we try to explain the photodissociation of the adsorbate-surface bond within the framework of MBPT. This requires to calculate the corresponding excited-state forces. One particular issue concerns the local character of the excitation, which we describe by appropriate confinement potentials.
