B在Hg_(0.75)Cd-(0.25)Te中掺杂效应的第一性原理研究
Doping effect of boron in Hg_(0.75)Cd_(0.25)Te:first-principles study
摘要
Abstract
Using the first-principles method based on the density functional theory,we study the doping effect of B impurity in HgCdTe (MCT).We find that the most stable configuration of the impurity is at the B hexagonal interstitial position,rather than at the in-situ substitution.The electronic structures and the density of states of B hexagonal interstitial doped MCT are systematically investigated. Near neighbour(NN) and next-near-neighbor(NNN) atoms around the B impurity are obviously relaxed.The relaxation induces the breaking of NN Te-Hg covalent bond.Moreover,B hexagonal interstitial behaves as triple n-type dopant.The charged state analysis indicates that B_i~h(2Hg1Cd) with three positive charges is most stable and forms an effecient donor.However,as long as the Hg vacancy exists,complex impurity between Hg vacancy and B impurity can be easily formed,its binding energy reaches up to 0.96 eV.Such complex behaves as single n-type dopant.Considering radiation damage of B ion implantation,the complex is a main factor restricting the activation of B ion in MCT.关键词
