The lowest energetic configurations of metal impurities in 4throw (Sc - Zn), 5throw (Y - Cd) and 6throw (Hf - Hg) elements in Ge crystals were determined with density functional theory calculations. It was found that the substitutional site is the lowest energetic configuration for most of the calculated metals in Ge. The most stable configurations of dopant (Ga, Sb) - metal complexes in Ge crystals were also investigated. Following results were obtained. (1) For Ga dopant, 1st neighbor T-site is the most stable for metals in group 3 to 7 elements while substitutional site next to Ga atom is the most stable for metals in group 8 to 12 elements. (2) For Sb dopant, substitutional site next to Sb atom is the most stable for all calculated metals. Binding energies of the interstitial metalMiwith the substitutional dopantDswere obtained by the calculated total energies. The calculated results for Ge were compared with those for Si.

Defect and doping are effective methods to modulate the physical and chemical properties of materials. In this report, we investigated the structural stability, electronic properties and quantum capacitance (Cdiff) of Zr2CO2 by changing the dopants of Si, Ge, Sn, N, B, S and F in the substitutional site. The doping of F, N, and S atoms makes the system undergo the semiconductor-to-conductor transition, while the doping of Si, Ge, and Sn maintains the semiconductor characteristics. The Cdiff of the doped systems are further explored. The B-doped system can be used as cathode materials, while the systems doped by S, F, N, Sn atoms are promising anode materials of asymmetric supercapacitors, especially for the S-doped system. The improved Cdiff mainly originates from Fermi-level shifts and Fermi-Dirac distribution by the introduction of the dopant. The effect of temperature on Cdiff is further explored. The result indicates that the maximum Cdiff of the studied systems gradually decreases with the increasing temperature. Our investigation can provide useful theoretical basis for designing and developing the ideal electrode materials for supercapacitors.

AbstractA theoretical model for DX centers which explains their unusual electronic properties in terms of two distinct bonding configurations for donor impurities in AlxGa1-x As alloys is examined. The results of our ab initio self-consistent pseudo-potential calculations show that for x > ≃20%, the normal fourfold coordinated substitutional site becomes unstable with respect to a large lattice distortion. The model explains the large difference between the thermal and optical ionization energies of DX centers.

AbstractDensity functional theory calculations of the solution energies of helium in substitutional, tetrahedral and octahedral sites have been performed for all BCC transition metals: V, Nb, Ta, Cr, Mo, W and Fe. The effects of exchange correlation functional and of pseudopotential have been investigated in Fe; they are relatively small. The solution energies are found to be weakly dependent on the element for the substitutional site whereas for the interstitial sites they are much smaller in group V than in group VI and they decrease from 3d to 4d and 5d metals. As a result an inversion is observed from V, Nb and Ta - which tend to favor the interstitial site - to Mo and W, which favor the substitutional one, with an intermediate behavior for Cr and Fe. Finally, the results indicate that the tetrahedral site is always energetically more favorable than the octahedral one by 0.2 to 0.3 eV.

ABSTRACTChanneling and lattice location has been used to investigate the structure of the boron-hydrogen complex in crystalline silicon. The positions of both the boron and hydrogen atoms have been determined. The results are compared with Monte-Carlo simulations. The boron atom in the B-H pair is found to be displaced from a substitutional site by 0.28±0.03Å, while the hydrogen atom is predominantly at a bond-center site, with a small proportion in a back-bonded position.
