The transistors planned for commercial use ten years from now in many electronic devices will have gate lengths shorter than 130 atoms, gate oxides thinner than 1.2 nm of SiO2 and clock speeds in excess of 10 GHz. It is now technologically possible to produce such transistors with gate oxides only 5 silicon atoms thick[l]. Since at least two of those 5 atoms are not in a local environment similar to either bulk Si or bulk SiO2, the properties of the interface are responsible for a significant fraction of the “bulk” properties of the gate oxide. However the physical (and especially their electrical) properties of the interfacial atoms are very different from .bulk Si or bulk SiO2. Further, roughness on an atomic scale can alter the leakage current by orders of magnitude.In our studies of such devices, we found that thermal oxidation tends to produce Si/SiO2 interfaces with 0.1-0.2 nm rms roughness.

Attosecond time-resolved photoemission from the differently terminated BiTeCl surfaces yield a photoelectron streaking that cannot be explained by bulk propagation effects alone. Instead, the atomic scale electronic structure and dynamical screening for both surface terminations have to be taken into account.

Density function theory (DFT) method was developed and applied for fundamentally understanding the doping effect of various metals (Al, Ti and Cr) on vanadium dioxide (VO2). The substitution doping of Al, Ti and Cr in VO2 could lead to significant changes in electronic structure, band gap and optical property. Different from physical experiments, the DFT method could be utilized for fundamental understandings at an atomic scale. It was found via DFT calculations that: (i) Al doping caused a slightly distorted octahedron in monoclinic VO2(M), and narrowed the band gap of VO2(M) due to the upward shift of the valence band (VB), while Cr doping narrowed the band gap because of the downward shift of the conduction band (CB); (ii) Ti doping slightly widened the band gap of VO2(M); and (iii) the optical reflectivity of VO2(M) decreased after substitution doping low-valent metals (e.g., Al). This study will be beneficial for designing and controlling elemental doping to obtain metal oxide nanocomposites with unique band gap and electronic structure for thermochromic energy saving applications.

AbstractThe atomic scale structures of the partial dislocation cores in GaAs are explored using ab initio electronic structure total energy techniques. The structure of the 30° partial dislocations are expected to be period doubled along the core. The structure of the 90° partial dislocations remains more uncertain, and here, an effort is made to predict which of two proposed reconstruction, double period or single period, is more stable. The relative energies of the two core structures are found to be equal, within the accuracy of the present calculations. It is suggested that at temperature, both core reconstructions will be present.
