Hybrid functional study of point defects in germanium

Germanium exhibits electron and hole mobilities that are higher than silicon. These unique properties make Ge a promising material for the development of metal-oxide semiconductor eld e ect transistors (MOSFETs). Point defects in semiconductors in uence the electronic structure as well as the t...
