[11p-Z07-13] Electronic structure of oxygen-excess amorphous Al2O3: First-principles calculations
Keywords:first-principles calculation, amorphous oxide
This study aims to theoretically clarify the electronic structures near the band gap of oxygen-excess amorphous Al2O3 materials. From the first-principles calculations using the amorphous model structures, it is shown that the electronic bands originating from the O-O linkages formed by excess oxygen appear at the valence band top and the conduction band bottom regions. It is also shown that the local atomic structures and the electronic band structures significantly change depending on the charged states of excess oxygen.
