From density functional theory to defect level in silicon: Does the “band gap problem” matter?
Online Presentations | 01 Oct 2008 | Contributor(s):: Peter A. Schultz
Modeling the electrical effects of radiation damage in semiconductor devices requires a detailed description of the properties of point defects generated during and subsequent to irradiation. Such modeling requires physical parameters, such as defect electronic levels, to describe carrier...
