Description

A peer-reviewed research article from Europe PMC (2026). During the fabrication and annealing of amorphous SiO2/Si interfaces, hydrogen is commonly introduced to passivate interfacial dangling bonds, yet it may also generate electrically active hydrogen-related defects. Here, first-principles calculations are performed to systematically investigate the structural evolution and electronic properties of hydrogen-related defects at ten representative sites within the suboxide region of an amorphous SiO2/Si(100) interface under neutral and charged conditions.
