Electronic and optical properties of silicon nanocrystals are calculated and discussed within a semiempirical tight-binding approach, which allows to study systems composed of thousands of atoms. Oscillator strengths, frequency-dependent optical absorption cross sections, and static dielectric constants are investigated for both spherical and ellipsoidal nanocrystals, with the aim of pointing out their size- and shape-dependent features. We show that the anisotropy of the optical functions follows the nanocrystal shape, and a comparison is discussed between very elongated structures and quantum wires.
