Research Abstract |
Dopant levels play crucial roles in the control and design of materials functions. In the present study, a computational approach has been developed to quantitatively evaluate the electronic levels of dopants and native defects in semiconductors and insulators. Electrical and optical properties relevant to dopants and native defects have been predicted in various functional oxides and compound semiconductors.
