Repeatable and reproducible formation/rupture of oxygen vacancy filaments in the vicinity of a polycrystalline HfO2 surface

We theoretically investigated the dynamics of oxygen vacancies (Vo’s) and the effect of changing their charge states by performing first-principles molecular dynamics simulations at a temperature of 1000 K. Calculations were performed for two structures of HfO2: a slab with (110) surfaces and a bulk...
