Diffusion of Cd and Te adatoms on CdTe(111) surfaces: A computational study using density functional theory

Journal Article Naderi, Ebadollah ; Nanavati, Sachin ; Majumder, Chiranjib ; ... - AIP Advances

CdTe is one of the most promising semiconductor for thin-film based solar cells. Here we report a computational study of Cd and Te adatom diffusion on the CdTe (111) A-type (Cd terminated) and B-type (Te terminated) surfaces and their migration paths. The atomic and electronic structure calculations are performed under the DFT formalism and climbing Nudge Elastic Band (cNEB) method has been applied to evaluate the potential barrier of the Te and Cd diffusion. In general the minimum energy site on the surface is labeled as A{sub a} site. In case of Te and Cd on B-type surface, the sub-surfacemore »« less

Disorder effects on the density of states of the II-VI semiconductor alloys Hg sub 0. 5 Cd sub 0. 5 Te, Cd sub 0. 5 Zn sub 0. 5 Te, and Hg sub 0. 5 Zn sub 0. 5 Te

Journal Article Wei, S ; Zunger, A - Physical Review, B: Condensed Matter; (USA)

The electronic structure of substitutionally random {ital A}{sub 1{minus}{ital x}B{ital x}C} alloys of zinc-blende semiconductors {ital AC} and {ital BC} departs from what a virtual-crystal approximation would grant both because of (i) a chemical perturbation, associated with an {ital electronicmismatch} between atoms {ital A} and {ital B}, and because of (ii) a structural perturbation (positional relaxation) induced by a {ital size} {ital mismatch} between {ital A} and {ital B}. Both effects on the electronic density of states are studied here for Hg{sub 0.5}Cd{sub 0.5}Te, Cd{sub 0.5}Zn{sub 0.5}Te, and Hg{sub 0.5}Zn{sub 0.5}Te in the context of first-principles self-consistent supercell models.

Structural and electronic properties of U{sub n}O{sub m} (n=1-3,m=1-3n) clusters: A theoretical study using screened hybrid density functional theory

Journal Article Yang, Yu ; Liu, Haitao ; Zhang, Ping - Journal of Chemical Physics

The structural and electronic properties of small uranium oxide clusters U{sub n}O{sub m} (n=1-3, m=1-3n) are systematically studied within the screened hybrid density functional theory. It is found that the formation of U–O–U bondings and isolated U–O bonds are energetically more stable than U–U bondings. As a result, no uranium cores are observed. Through fragmentation studies, we find that the U{sub n}O{sub m} clusters with the m/n ratio between 2 and 2.5 are very stable, hinting that UO{sub 2+x} hyperoxides are energetically stable. Electronically, we find that the O-2p states always distribute in the deep energy range, and the U-5fmore »« less

Electronic and thermoelectric properties of Ce{sub 3}Te{sub 4} and La{sub 3}Te{sub 4} computed with density functional theory with on-site Coulomb interaction correction

Journal Article Vo, Trinh ; Allmen, Paul von ; Huang, Chen-Kuo ; ... - Journal of Applied Physics

The electronic properties and Seebeck coefficients of Ce{sub 3}Te{sub 4} and La{sub 3}Te{sub 4} are computed using Density Functional Theory with on-site Coulomb interaction correction. We found that the Seebeck coefficients of Ce{sub 3}Te{sub 4} and La{sub 3}Te{sub 4} are almost equal at temperatures larger than the Curie temperature of Ce{sub 3}Te{sub 4}, and in good agreement with the measurements reported by May et al. [Phys. Rev. B 86, 035135 (2012)]. At temperatures below the Curie temperature, the Seebeck coefficient of Ce{sub 3}Te{sub 4} increases due to the ferromagnetic ordering, which leads the f-electron of Ce to contribute to themore »« less

Experimental studies on electronic properties of HgTe/CdTe and Hg(1-x)Cd(x)Te/CdTe heterostructures and superlattices. Final report, 1 March 1984-30 September 1987

Technical Report Ong, N P

The electronic properties of superlattices made of alternating layers of mercury telluride and cadmium telluride were studied at low temperatures T (down to 0.5 K) and in high dc magnetic fields (up to 29 T.) There were two motivations for performing these studies. 1) Whereas superlattices made from III-V materials such as Aluminum Gallium Arsenides and Indium Phosphide have been fabricated and shown to support very high mobility electrons in two-dimensional wells, similar studies had not been performed on the II-VI compounds. In 1982, Dr. Jeff Cheung at Rockwell, Thousand Oaks, succeeded in fabricating superlattices of HgTe and CdTE usingmore »« less
