A hybrid density functional study of lithium in ZnO: Stability, ionization levels, and diffusion

Nava Setter, Alfredo Pasquarello, Alexander Tagantsev, Audrius Alkauskas, Alexandra Sarabando de Carvalho

The properties of interstitial and substitutional Li in wurtzite ZnO are modeled using hybrid density functional calculations. We investigate the impact of the band-gap error on the formation energies of the two defects and their dependence on the Fermi le ...
