Electronic states in Si quantum dots are theoretically examined, considering a multivalley structure of conduction band. In quantum dots smaller than about 5 nm, one-electron energy levels in equivalent valleys are ÿlled consecutively with increasing the number of electrons N . Owing to the absence
