We have studied the effects of disorder, correlation, external electric field, impurity concentration, and impurity location near and at the Si-SiO2 interface of a metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor, in the range of experimental interest. We show that the intraimpurity correlation energy and the binding energy have strong dependence with the applied electric field and the impurity location on the interface. Taking into account all the above effects the Hubbard-Mott scenario is presented. As a result we obtain a critical concentration of about 1011cm-2, which can be discussed in terms of recent experimental findings.
