Effective Phonon Dispersion of $\beta$- (Al$_x$Ga$_{1-x}$)$_2$O$_3$ alloy semiconductor

In this work, the Effective Phonon Dispersion of $\beta$- (Al$_x$Ga$_{1-x}$)$_2$O$_3$ alloy is investigated using the Phonon unfolding formalism. To capture the true randomness of the system, supercells are designed using the technique of special quasirandom structues. The phonon unfolding technique is then used to obtain the effective phonon dispersion (EPD) for aluminium fractions of 18.75 \% and 37.5 \% with respect to gallium atoms. The impact of disorder on the high frequency and DC dielectric constant is also investigated. The unfolding procedure was also applied to the dipole moment where the projection probability was used to obtain the IR spectra of the disordered system. The calculated properties gives us further insights to calculate the transport properties in these alloy semiconductors while capturing the true randomness of the system.
