The presence of defects in the narrow-gap semiconductors GaSb and InSb affects their dopability and hence applicability for a range of optoelectronic applications. Here, we report hybrid density functional theory based calculations of the…
The effect of Mg $\delta$-doping on the structural, electrical and optical properties of GaN grown $\textsl{via}$ metalorganic vapor phase epitaxy has been studied using transmission electron microscopy, secondary ion mass spectroscopy,…
Thermodynamics and kinetics of Li, Na, and Mg storage in Ge is studied ab initio. The most stable configurations can consist of tetrahedral, substitutional, or a combination of the two types of sites. In the dilute limit, Li, Na prefer…
Determining the types and concentrations of vacancies present in intentionally doped GaN is a notoriously difficult and long-debated problem. Here we use an unconventional approach, based on thermal transport modeling, to determine the…
Here, we report the performance of vacancy affected supercell of a hybrid Graphene-Boron Nitride embedded armchair nanoribbon (a-GNR-BN) based n-MOSFET at its ballistic transport limit using Non Equilibrium Green's Function (NEGF)…
Scaling wide-band-gap semiconductors to the ultrathin limit offers a transformative pathway for power electronics, with gallium nitride (GaN) representing a cornerstone material in this class. However, the operational resilience and…
This paper addresses the long standing and controversial issue of the origin of superconductivity in cuprates. Their superconductivity can be attributed to amphoteric defects associated with vacancy sites in copper oxide planes. A local…
The local density of states of Mn-Mn pairs in GaAs is mapped with cross-sectional scanning tunneling microscopy and compared with theoretical calculations based on envelope-function and tight-binding models. These measurements and…
We find that a donor-doped band-gap material can enhance the overall high-order harmonic generation (HHG) efficiency by several orders of magnitude, compared with undoped and acceptor-doped materials. This significant enhancement, predicted…
We develop a quantitatively predictive theory for impurity-band ferromagnetism in the low-doping regime of GaMnAs and compare with experimental measurements of a series of samples whose compositions span the transition from paramagnetic…
We find that Ag-interstitial ($Ag_I$) acts as an electron donor and plays an important role in Ag-excess doped polycrystalline PbTe thermoelectric materials. When Ag is heavily doped in PbTe, the neutral (Ag-Ag) dimer defect is formed at…
Oxygen is the most common unintentional impurity found in GaN. We study the interaction between substitutional oxygen (ON) and the gallium vacancy (VGa) to form a point defect complex in GaN. The formation energy of the gallium vacancy is…
The phenomenon of Mott insulation involves the localization of itinerant electrons due to strong local repulsion. Upon doping, a pseudogap (PG) phase emerges - marked by selective gapping of the Fermi surface without conventional symmetry…
Using a microscopic finite-cluster tight-binding model, we investigate the trend of the magnetic anisotropy energy as a function of the cluster size for an individual Mn impurity positioned in the vicinity of the (110) GaAs surface,We…
We study the possibility of d0 ferromagnetism in the compound MgO doped with nitrogen (N). The Haldane-Anderson impurity model is formulated within the tight-binding approximation for determining the host band-structure and the…
Insulating FeGa$_3$ poses peculiar puzzles beyond the occurrence of an electronic gap in an intermetallic compound. This Fe-based material has a very distinctive structural characteristic with the Fe atoms occurring in dimers. The…
We determine atomic and electronic structure, formation energy, stability and magnetic properties of native point defects, such as Gallium (Ga) and Nitrogen (N) vacancies in bulk and at non-polar (10$\overline{1}$0) surface of wurtzite…
The anharmonicity resulted from the intrinsic phonon interaction is neglected by quasiharmonic approximation. Although the intensive researches about anharmonicity have been done, up to now the free energy contributed by the anharmonicity…
We have calculated formation energies and position of the defect levels for all native defects and for a variety of donor and acceptor impurities employing first-principles total-energy calculations. An analysis of the numerical results…
We report on a comprehensive combined experimental and theoretical study of Curie temperature trends in (Ga,Mn)As ferromagnetic semiconductors. Broad agreement between theoretical expectations and measured data allows us to conclude that…
