GeO 2 was proposed as valuable passivation layer at the surface with Ge to integrate oxide with high dielectric constant in Ge-based logic devices. Hence, the identification of the defects present at different Ge/GeO 2 interfaces becomes a mandatory issue to predict the electrical features of device
The previously suggested segregation model for arsenic at Si/SiO 2 interfaces based on a combined trapping/pairing model [J. Dabrowski, H.-J. Müssig, V. Zavodinsky, R. Baierle, M.J. Caldas, Phys. Rev. B 65 ( 2002) 245305] requires high binding energies for interface vacancies, which our results of ∼
