Question

Consider a MOS capacitor made with p-type silicon. It has an oxide thickness of 100 nm, a fixed positive oxide charge of 108 C/cm210^{-8} \text{ C/cm}^2 at the oxide-silicon interface, and a metal work function of 4.6 eV. Assume that the relative permittivity of the oxide is 4 and the absolute permittivity of free space is 8.85×1014 F/cm8.85 \times 10^{-14} \text{ F/cm}. If the flatband voltage is 0 V, the work function of the p-type silicon (in eV, rounded off to two decimal places) is ______.
