Comparative study for effect of Ti, Nb and W incorporation on the electronic and optical properties of pristine hafnia (m-HfO2): DFT theoretical prospective
First-principles calculations using the Hubbard approach (DFT + U) with PBEsol correlation were performed to compare the effects of incorporating 3d, 4d, and 5d metal atoms on the electronic and optical properties of m-HfO2. Incorporating metal atoms in the HfO2 crystal structure shifted the band gap edges and lowered the conduction band minimum, reducing the band gap as follows: 5.24 eV for HfO2, 3.26 eV for HfO2:Ti, 1.12 eV for HfO2:W, and 0.92 eV for HfO2:Nb. Total and partial density of states calculations showed that the valence band maximum of pristine HfO2 is mainly constructed from O 2p states, while the conduction band minimum is mainly from Hf 4d states. For doped crystals, the conduction band minimum is mainly from 3d states of Ti, 4d states of Nb, and 5d states of W. For pristine HfO2, the calculated dielectric constant, reflectivity and refractive index match available experimental and theoretical data. For doped systems, incorporating Nb (4d metal) and W (5d metal) had similar effects on the electronic and optical properties of HfO2, differing more from incorporating Ti (3d metal). HfO2 absorption roughly doubled upon Ti atom insertion (HfO2:Ti). Based on the results of this study, we would like to emphasize that these results provide a solid theoretical starting point that motivates further experimental studies into the application potential of these doped metal oxide systems.
期刊介绍:
he Journal of Computational Electronics brings together research on all aspects of modeling and simulation of modern electronics. This includes optical, electronic, mechanical, and quantum mechanical aspects, as well as research on the underlying mathematical algorithms and computational details. The related areas of energy conversion/storage and of molecular and biological systems, in which the thrust is on the charge transport, electronic, mechanical, and optical properties, are also covered.
In particular, we encourage manuscripts dealing with device simulation; with optical and optoelectronic systems and photonics; with energy storage (e.g. batteries, fuel cells) and harvesting (e.g. photovoltaic), with simulation of circuits, VLSI layout, logic and architecture (based on, for example, CMOS devices, quantum-cellular automata, QBITs, or single-electron transistors); with electromagnetic simulations (such as microwave electronics and components); or with molecular and biological systems. However, in all these cases, the submitted manuscripts should explicitly address the electronic properties of the relevant systems, materials, or devices and/or present novel contributions to the physical models, computational strategies, or numerical algorithms.
