Monoclinic $\beta$-Ga$_2$O$_3$, a promising wide band gap semiconducting material, exhibits complex, anisotropic diffusional characteristics and mass transport behavior as a results of its low symmetry crystal structure. From…

$\beta$-Ga$_2$O$_3$ is a leading ultra-wide band gap semiconductor, but its performance depends on precise control over dopant incorporation and stability. In this work, we use first-principles calculations to systematically assess the…

Split Ga vacancies are the dominant native acceptor in $\beta$-$Ga_2O_3$; however, their role in $\alpha$ and $\kappa$ phases has been largely overlooked or assumed to be unfavorable. A detailed understanding of these defects is critical…

Defect energy formation, lattice distortions and electronic structure of cubic In2O3 with Sn, Ga and O impurities were theoretically investigated using density functional theory. Different types of point defects, consisting of 1 to 4 atoms…

Understanding the unique properties of ultra-wide band gap semiconductors requires detailed information about the exact nature of point defects and their role in determining the properties. Here, we report the first direct microscopic…

Ab initio molecular dynamics simulations are employed to investigate the dominant migration mechanism of the gallium vacancy in gaas as well as to assess its free energy of formation and the rate constant of gallium self-diffusion. our…

The diffusion of intrinsic defects in 3C-SiC is studied using an ab initio method based on density functional theory. The vacancies are shown to migrate on their own sublattice. The carbon split-interstitials and the two relevant silicon…

We report first-principles calculations that clarify the formation energies and charge transition levels of native point defects (Ga and O vacancies, interstitials, and a Ga vacancy-O vacancy pair) in corundum structured ${\alpha}$-Ga2O3.…

Ultrawide bandgap semiconductor $\beta$-Ga2O3 holds extensive potential for applications in high-radiation environments. One of the primary challenges in its practical application is unveiling the mechanisms of surface irradiation damage…

Ga$_2$O$_3$ is a wide-bandgap material of interest for a wide variety of devices, many of these requiring heterostructures, for instance to achieve carrier confinement. A common method to create such heterostructures is to alloy with…

Using density-functional ab initio theoretical techniques, we study (Ga$_{1-x}$In$_x$)$_2$O$_3$ in both its equilibrium structures (monoclinic $\beta$ and bixbyite) and over the whole range of composition. We establish that the alloy…

In this paper some specific issues related to point defects in GaAs nanowires are addressed with the help of density functional theory calculations. These issues mainly arise from the growth of nanowires under conditions different from…

Irradiation of gallium arsenide (GaAs) produces immobile vacancies and mobile interstitials. However, after decades of experimental investigation, the immobile Ga vacancy eludes observation, raising the question: Where is the Ga vacancy?…

Point defects in crystalline materials often occur in multiple charge states. Although many experimental methods to study and explore point defects are available, techniques to explore the non-equilibrium dynamics of the charge states of…
