Using a density functional approach, we study structural and electronic properties of the 4H(0001)-SiC/SiO2 interface. Through the sequential use of classical and ab initio simulation methods, we generate an abrupt model structure which describes the trans ...
We investigate the structure and mobility of single self-interstitial atom and vacancy defects in body-centered-cubic transition metals forming groups 5B (vanadium, niobium, and tantalum) and 6B (chromium, molybdenum, and tungsten) of the Periodic Table. D ...
We add an effective atom-centered nonlocal term to the exchange-correlation potential in order to cure the lack of London dispersion forces in std. d. functional theory. Calibration of this long-range correction is performed using d. functional perturbatio ...
We propose a method within density functional theory for aligning defect energy levels at interfaces without relying on experimental data. We apply our scheme to the alignment of charge transition levels of the interstitial hydrogen and the hydrogen bridge ...
We studied protons attached to bridging O atoms in the vicinity of the Si(100)-SiO2 interface through density-functional calculations for realistic interface models. These protons do not disrupt the bonding network except in the case of strained SiO bonds ...
Si 2p con-level shifts for a series of molecules are calculated within the local density approximation to density functional theory. Using a pseudopotential approach, the shifts are calculated both in the initial-state approximation and including core-hole ...
Positively charged defects induced by protons at the Si(100)-SiO2 interface are studied through density-functional calculations and realistic interface models. Protons generally preserve the bonding network, but cause the spontaneous breaking of strained b ...
