Keywords: | DRNTU::Engineering::Electrical and electronic engineering | Issue Date: | 1998 | Source: | Zhang, X. H., Chua, S. J., & Fan, W. (1998). Band offsets at GaInP/AlGaInP(001) heterostructures lattice matched to GaAs. Applied physics letters, 73(8), 1098. | Series/Report no.: | Applied physics letters | Abstract: | In this work, the band offsets at the Ga0.5In0.5P/AlxGa0.5-xIn0.5P heterojunction lattice matched to (001) GaAs was calculated over the whole range of aluminum composition from x=0.0 to 0.5 using the first-principles pseudopotential method with virtual crystal approximation. The valence band offset, VBO, varies with x as VBO=0.433x eV, while the inferred conduction band offset CBO at Γ minimum (band-gap difference minus the valence band offset) varies in x as CBOΓ=0.787x eV. Our results are in good agreement with the experimental data | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10356/80849 http://hdl.handle.net/10220/18010 |
