Density functional theory modelling of intrinsic and dopant-related defects in Ge and Si

This thesis covers the application of the local density approximation of density functional theory to a variety of related processes in germanium and silicon. Effort has been made to use calculated results to explain experimentally observed phenomena. The behaviour of vacancies and vacancy clusters...
