摘要
The electronic and structural properties of N-atom-doped amorphous germanium are obtained by ab initio, total energy calculations. We find that the 3-fold coordinated N impurity (N-3) and the 4-fold coordinated N impurity (N-4) present negative effective Coulombic interactions. Analysis of these results shows that the electrical effect of n-type doping due to N atoms is not related only to chemical equilibrium between N-3 and N-4.
