Abstract
Using first principles calculations with local density approximation (LDA) and LDA+U methods, we present a detailed theoretical study of reactive gas combinations (O2, N2, CH4, and CHF3) for the etching processes of CoO(001) surfaces. The calculation results show that the best possible gas combinations for the etching process contain CH 4. Despite differences in the intermediate state total energies predicted by the two methods, the favorable results in the final state lead to the same reaction products.
