摘要
Over the past few years, there is a general boom in the research of Ga2O3 as a multifunctional material with promising applications in power converters, wireless charging systems and solar cells, among others. There are five Ga2O3 polymorphs, with the Ga2O3 monoclinic structure being the most stable one. The origin of the n-type conductivity in beta-Ga2O3 is usually assigned to oxygen vacancies that introduce donor levels in the band gap. On the modelling side, a main focus has been the study of the influence of vacancies and interstitial impurities on the Ga2O3 electronic band structure, especially on the energetic position of donor levels inside the bandgap as well as on the migration barriers for point defects in the bulk. In this work, we will use the density functional theory approximation (DFT) to address the influence of oxygen vacancies on the electronic and structural properties of Ga2O3.
