  2. 1. Defects and Impurities in CdTe : An ab Initio Study

    Author : Anna Lindström; Mattias Klintenerg; Susanne Mirbt; Biplab Sanyal; Peter Zahn; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Native defects; Compensation mechanisms; Semiconductor doping; Physics with spec. in Atomic; Molecular and Condensed Matter Physics; Fysik med inriktning mot atom- molekyl- och kondenserande materiens fysik;

    Abstract : In this thesis defects and impurities in CdTe have been studied with ab initio methods. CdTe is a II-VI semiconductor with many important applications such as γ- and X-ray detectors, solar cells and medical imaging. READ MORE

  4. 2. Defects in Bismuth Vanadate: Insights from First Principles

    Author : Nicklas Österbacka; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; defects; oxides; semiconductors; density functional theory;

    Abstract : Photoelectrochemical water splitting is an attractive technique for sustainable hydrogen production, but its efficiency is heavily dependent on the properties of the semiconducting photoelectrodes used in the process. These properties are intimately connected to the presence of point defects in the materials, and understanding this relationship is a key step towards the development of better photoabsorbers.
