    DEFECT-RELATED ISSUES IN HIGH-K DIELECTRICS

    The roles of impurities and point defects are again coming to the forefront as new materials, such as high-k dielectrics, and novel device structures (e.g., double gate MOSFETs) are introduced in new generatio...

    A Total Energy-Renormalization Group Approach to the Phase Transition of Solid Surfaces

    The tight-binding energy minimization method is combined with a renormalization-group calculation to study the structural phase transition of the Si(100) surface. The ground-state reconstruction is found to be...

    Bonding Coordination Defects in Selenium

    A great variety of experimental phenomena have been attributed to under- or over-coordinated sites in chalcogenide glasses. The electronic structure of these bonding coordination defects has proven to be an in...

    Electronic Densities of States of Amorphous and Trigonal Se and Te

    We have used the Empirical Pseudopotential Method to obtain electronic densities of states and charge distributions for the valence electrons in trigonal Se and Te. We have explored the relation between densit...
