As a promising third-generation semiconductor, β-Ga2O3 is facing bottleneck for its p-type doping. We investigated the electronic structures and the stability of various Cu doped structures of β-Ga2O3. We found that Cu atoms substituting Ga atoms result in p-type conductivity. We derived the temperature and absolute oxygen partial pressure dependent formation energies of various doped structures based on first principles calculation with dipole correction. Then, the critical thermodynamic condition for forming the abovementioned substitutional structure was obtained.

ABSTRACTThe structures and electronic properties of graphene with defects consisting of one to six atomic vacancies are investigated using first-principles calculation. All of the geometrically possible initial structures of a movacancy or a multivacancy in graphene are equilibrated. The formation energies and electronic band structures for the equilibrated defective structures are calculated. It is suggested non-zero bandgaps may be induced in graphene by introducing some types of monovacancy or multivacancy although further checks regarding supercell size are necessary to ensure the present results.

The different point defects formed by two hydrogen atoms or two helium atoms in tungsten were investigated through first-principles calculation. The energetically favorable site for a hydrogen atom is tetrahedral interstitial site while substitutional site is the most preferred site for a helium atom. The formation energies of two hydrogen or helium atoms are determined by their positions, and they are not simply 2 times the formation energy of a single hydrogen or helium atom’s defect. After relaxation, two adjacent hydrogen atoms are away from each other while helium atoms are close to each other. The reasons for the interaction between two hydrogen or helium atoms are also discussed.
