• ) [14]. A high ionicity of bond (IOB) and strong negative electron affinity (X) of O result in a strong localization of Si-NC valence electrons. This localization corresponds to increased binding energies – the ICT shifts all MOs away from Evac. N is the only anionic element with a positive X [29] which

Fundamental properties of N, O and Si: Ionization energy (Eion), electron affinity (X), electronegativity (EN), ensuing ionicity of bond (IOB) to Si and experimental values of characteristic bond lengths [29].

• comparable total ion dose. The accumulated dose will at some point induce an unacceptable number of defects and a crystalline material will become amorphous [16]. It needs to be noted, though, because of the high ionicity of MgO its amorphization by ion implantation is difficult [31]. In this study, not more

This observation led them to correlate the ionicity of the salt, measured by the partial charge of the magnesium ion, to its compatibility with the magnesium metal, i.e., salts with higher charge on the

In order to be charge neutral, the electrolyte contains equal amounts of anions and

• experimental observations [18][19][20] of a work function minimum as a function of the halogen coverage. Several mechanisms have been proposed to explain its occurrence. For cationic adsorbates, the subsequent increase of Φ beyond the work function minimum was attributed to a reduction of the ionicity of the
