We discuss the structural, electronic and dielectric properties of a model structure of the Si(100)-SiO2 interface that accounts for the amorphous nature of the oxide. After showing that the structural properties of this model are consistent with a variety ...
We review the structural, electronic and dielectric properties of atomistic models of the Si(100)-SiO2 interface, which have been purposely designed in order to match a large variety of atomic-scale experimental data. After describing the generation proced ...
We study the infrared properties of the Si-SiO2 interface within a first-principles approach. In order to provide an atomic-scale description of the dielectric permittivity (both high-frequency and static) and of the infrared absorption at the interface, w ...
The paper describes processing and dielectric properties of 0.65Pb(Mn1/3Nb2/3)O-3-0.35PbTiO(3) films deposited on alumina and silicon substrates by screen-printing. Ink development and problems associated with adhesion of electrodes to substrate are discus ...
We develop a theory for investigating atomic-scale dielectric permittivity profiles across interfaces between insulators. A local susceptibility chi(x;omega) is introduced to describe variations of the dielectric response over length scales of the order of ...
We investigated the oxidation reaction of the O-2 molecule at the Si(100)-SiO2 interface by using a constrained ab initio molecular dynamics approach. To represent the Si(100)-SiO2 interface, we adopted several model interfaces whose structural properties ...
We investigate the dielectric permittivity of SiO2 on Si(100) substrates using a first-principles approach. It is shown that both the static and high-frequency dielectric constants of the oxide overlayer increase when the oxide thickness is reduced. This b ...
Hysteretic and nonlinear dielectric behaviour in ferroelectric ceramics has been of interest since 1950s, when these materials found application in various electronic devices. Presently, these phenomena concern with important areas of science, technology a ...
The dielectric response of a ferroelectric film with bilinear coupling between order parameter and strain is theoretically addressed. An exact solution for the total (lattice and domain contributions) dielectric permittivity of the system for the case wher ...
We investigate the equivalent oxide thickness of a thin oxide interlayer in gate insulator stacks on silicon. Through the use of a first-principles approach, we map the profile of the local permittivity across two interface models showing different suboxid ...
