Absolute band alignment at semiconductor-water interfaces using explicit and implicit descriptions for liquid water (open access)

Absolute band alignment at semiconductor-water interfaces using explicit and implicit descriptions for liquid water

Article presents a rigorous and systematic study of the band alignment of semiconductors in aqueous solutions by contrasting a range of hybrid explicit/implicit models against explicit atomistic simulations based on density-functional theory.

Interface chemistry and leakage current mechanism of HfGdON/Ge gate stack modulated by ALD-driven interlayer (open access)

Interface chemistry and leakage current mechanism of HfGdON/Ge gate stack modulated by ALD-driven interlayer

Article describes an experiment in which a Ge metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS) capacitor based on HfGdON/Ge gate stacks with an ALD-driven passivation layer was fabricated, and compares it's interfacial and electrical properties with those of its counterparts that have not undergone passivation treatment.
