Oxygen Vacancy, Oxygen Vacancy–Vacancy Pairs, and Frenkel Defects in Cubic Lutetium Oxide [PDF]
Electronic and structural properties of cubic Lu2O3 with either single oxygen vacancy, oxygen vacancy-vacancy pair or a Frenkel pair (oxygen vacancy and interstitial oxygen) were analyzed using ab ...

Electric field-induced oxygen vacancies in YBa2Cu3O7 [PDF]
The microscopic doping mechanism behind the superconductor-to-insulator transition of a thin film of YBa2Cu3O7 was recently identified as due to the migration of O atoms from the CuO chains of the film. Here, we employ density-functional theory calculations to study the evolution of the electronic structure of a slab of YBa2Cu3O7 in the presence of ...

Oxygen Vacancies in Perovskite Oxide Piezoelectrics [PDF]
The excellent electro-mechanical properties of perovskite oxide ferroelectrics make these materials major piezoelectrics. Oxygen vacancies are believed to easily form, migrate, and strongly affect ferroelectric behavior and, consequently, the piezoelectric performance of these materials and devices based thereon.

Oxygen Vacancies Nucleate Charged Domain Walls in Ferroelectrics [PDF]
We study the influence of oxygen vacancies on the formation of charged 180$^\circ$ domain walls in ferroelectric BaTiO$_3$ using first principles calculations. We show that it is favorable for vacancies to assemble in crystallographic planes, and that such clustering is accompanied by the formation of a charged domain wall. The domain wall has negative

Charge-Transfer Induced by the Oxygen Vacancy Defects in the Ag/MoO3 Composite System
In this paper, an Ag/MoO3 composite system was cosputtered by Ar plasma bombardment on a polystyrene (PS) colloidal microsphere array. The MoO3 formed by this method contained abundant oxygen vacancy defects, which provided a channel for charge transfer ...

Thermodynamics of mono and di-vacancies in barium titanate [PDF]
The thermodynamic and kinetic properties of mono and di-vacancy defects in cubic (para-electric) barium titanate are studied by means of density-functional theory calculations. It is determined which vacancy types prevail for given thermodynamic boundary
