Defect engineering via surfaces for metal-oxide electronics

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contribution

Abstract

Recent advances are presented relating to methods for engineering the behavior of point defects in oxide semiconductors like rutile TiO2 and ZnO. Self-diffusion experiments, supported by continuum computations, show that surfaces exert profound effects on defects within the bulk through two distinct mechanisms involving surface chemical bond exchange and electrostatics. Such effects are especially pronounced in confined geometries such as thin films, small particles and nanowires with high surface/volume ratios.
