Stability and band offsets between GaAs semiconductor and CeO2 gate dielectric

Cerium oxide (CeO2) appears to be a promising candidate high-k dielectric material in GaAs-based metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors. The electronic properties of GaAs/CeO2 (001) heterojunctions are investigated by density functional theory. We determine the GaAs/CeO2 heterostructure...
