16. Note, if the gate electrode is not floating, a dilute screening ionic layer is expected to have formed also in the active material next to the gate oxide. This layer is not included in the inset of Fig. 1.

18. bulk is decreasing some-what and consequently that some doping takes place. We attribute this to the Fermi level of Au being significantly closer to the valence band edge than the conduction band edge of superyellow thus allowing for very slight p-type doping below the band gap. However, as observed this effect only seems to be important at long charging times.
