**Problem Statement for Educational Purpose:**

Consider an aluminum-silicon dioxide-silicon MOS device with the following characteristics:

- Acceptor concentration, \(N_a = 2 \times 10^{18} \, \text{cm}^{-3}\)
- Oxide thickness, \(t_{ox} = 40 \, \text{nm}\)
- Oxide charge, \(Q'_{ss} = 5 \times 10^{-10} \, \text{C/cm}^2\)

Additional parameters for the junctions are given as:

- Metal work function for aluminum-silicon dioxide junction, \(\Phi_m = 3.20 \, \text{V}\)
- Electron affinity for a silicon-silicon dioxide junction, \(\chi = 3.25 \, \text{V}\)
- Energy gap for silicon, \(E_g = 1.12 \, \text{V}\)

**Objective:** 

Determine the metal-semiconductor work function difference, \(\Phi_{ms}\). Use this value to calculate the flat-band voltage, \(V_{FB}\). 

**Given Relative Permittivity:** 

- Relative permittivity of silicon dioxide is 3.9.

**Options for \(V_{FB}\):**
- \(V_{FB} = -0.953 \, \text{V}\)
- \(V_{FB} = -0.900 \, \text{V}\)
- \(V_{FB} = -1.095 \, \text{V}\)
- \(V_{FB} = -1.053 \, \text{V}\)

**Instructions:** 

Utilize the provided parameters to compute the values accurately, following standard computational methods in semiconductor physics.
