    Abstract The band alignment of semiconductors, insulators, and dielectrics is relevant to diverse material properties and device structures utilizing their surfaces and interfaces. In particular, the ionization potential and electron affinity are fundamental quantities that describe surface-dependent band-edge positions with respect to the vacuum level. Their accurate and systematic determination, however, demands elaborate experiments or simulations for well-characterized surfaces. Here, we report machine learning for the band alignment of nonmetallic oxides using a high-throughput first-principles calculation data set containing about 3000 oxide surfaces. Our neural network accurately predicts the band positions for relaxed surfaces of binary oxides simply by using the information on bulk structures and surface termination planes. Moreover, we extend the model to naturally include multiple-cation effects and transfer it to ternary oxides. The present approach enables the band alignment of a vast number of solid surfaces, thereby opening the way to a systematic understanding and materials screening.

    Abstract Ferroelectricity in crystals is associated with the displacement of ions or rotations of polar units. Here we consider the dipole created by donor doping (D^{+}) and the corresponding bound polaron (e^{-}). A dipole of 6.15 Debye is predicted, from Berry phase analysis, in the Ruddlesden-Popper phase of Sr_{3}Ti_{2}O_{7}. A characteristic double-well potential is formed, which persists for high doping densities. The effective Hubbard U interaction can vary the defect state from metallic, a two-dimensional polaron, through to a zero-dimensional polaron. The ferroelectriclike behavior reported here is localized and distinct from conventional spontaneous lattice polarization.

    Abstract Ferroelectricity in crystals is associated with the displacement of ions or rotations of polar units. Here we consider the dipole created by donor doping ($D^+$) and the corresponding bound polaron ($e^-$).A dipole of 6.15 Debye is predicted, from Berry phase analysis, in the Ruddlesden-Popper phase of ${\rm Sr_3Ti_2O_7}$. A characteristic double-well potential is formed, which persists for high doping densities. The effective Hubbard $U$ interaction can vary the defect state from metallic, a two-dimensional polaron, through to a zero-dimensional polaron. The ferroelectric-like behavior reported here is localized and distinct from conventional spontaneous lattice polarization.

  4. Article: Hole-Doping to a Cu(I)-Based Semiconductor with an Isovalent Cation: Utilizing a Complex Defect as a Shallow Acceptor

    Abstract p-Type doping in Cu(I)-based semiconductors is pivotal for solar cell photoabsorbers and hole transport materials to improve the device performance. Impurity doping is a fundamental technology to overcome the intrinsic limits of hole concentration controlled by native defects. Here, we report that alkali metal impurities are prominent p-type dopants for the Cu(I)-based cation-deficient hole conductors. When the size mismatch with Cu⁺ in the host lattice is increased, these isovalent impurities are preferentially located at interstitial positions to interact with the constituent Cu cations, forming stable impurity–defect complexes. We demonstrate that the Cs impurity in γ-CuI semiconductors enhances hole concentration controllability for single crystals and thin films in the range of 10¹³–10¹⁹ cm–³. First-principles calculations indicate that the Cs impurity forms impurity–defect complexes that act as shallow acceptors leading to the increased p-type conductivity. This isovalent doping provides an approach for controlled doping into cation-deficient semiconductors through an interaction of impurities with native defects.

    Abstract Oxidation states are well-established in chemical science teaching and research. We data-mine more than 168 000 crystallographic reports to find an optimal allocation of oxidation states to each element. In doing so, we uncover discrepancies between textbook chemistry and reported charge states observed in materials. We go on to show how the oxidation states we recommend can significantly facilitate materials discovery and the heuristic design of novel inorganic compounds.

    Abstract A joint experimental and theoretical study is presented to reveal the influence of nitrogen doping on the optical and electrical properties of NiO thin films. Nitrogen addition can significantly enhance the subgap absorption. The molecular state of nitrogen (N₂) has been identified in these doped thin films by electron energy loss spectroscopy.

    Abstract A correction method for vertical transition levels (VTLs) involving defect states calculated with a supercell technique is formulated and its effectiveness is systematically verified with 10 defects in prototypical materials: MgO, GaN, cubic-BN, and 3C-SiC. Within point-charge approximations, the corrected VTLs for cation vacancies are found to well reproduce their dilute limits, while they do not work as satisfactorily for anion vacancies. In contrast, when the finite defect size contribution is incorporated, the mean absolute errors are reduced and become less than 0.1 eV with moderate size supercells in all cases. Our correction scheme is a powerful technique because it is adaptive for evaluating various quantities at fixed geometry, as represented by those relevant to the generalized Koopmans' theorem.
