A review table with the expected charge states for both VSiV_{\text{Si}} and VCV_{\text{C}}, considering only EFE_F, and optical ionization. Referenced in the main text in Section charge-state-control.

Charge States and Ionization

The following table is based on discussion with S. Lee and C. Bonato, table was created by C. Bonato.
