A multiband empirical tight-binding model for group-III-nitride semiconductors with a wurtzite structure has been developed and applied to both bulk systems and embedded quantum dots. As a minimal basis set we assume one s-orbital and three…
We report calculated, electronic and related properties of wurtzite and zinc blende gallium nitrides (w-GaN, zb-GaN). We employed a local density approximation (LDA) potential and the linear combination of atomic orbital (LCAO) formalism.…
A number of diverse bulk properties of the zincblende and wurtzite III-V nitrides AlN, GaN, and InN, are predicted from first principles within density functional theory using the plane-wave ultrasoft pseudopotential method, within both the…
Using a band-structure method that includes the correction to the band gap error in the local density approximation (LDA), we study the chemical trends of the band gap variation in III-V semiconductors and predict that the band gap for InN…
We report findings from several ab-initio, self-consistent calculations of electronic and transport properties of wurtzite aluminum nitride. Our calculations utilized a local density approximation (LDA) potential and the linear combination…
The wurtzite III-Nitrides family of semiconductors, which include the compounds GaN, InN, and AlN, along with their derivative ternary alloys, is highly priced for its wide range of bandgaps, lattice constant tunability, high breakdown…
UV emitters based on the semiconductor alloy aluminium gallium nitride, (Al,Ga)N, have attracted significant interest in recent years due to their potential for optoelectronic devices. To guide the design of such devices with improved…
A simple theoretical method for deducing the effective bond-orbital model (EBOM) of III-nitride wurtzite (WZ) semiconductors is presented. In this model, the interaction parameters for zinc-blende (ZB) structures are used as an initial…
An oversight of several previous results from local density approximation (LDA) calculations appear to have led to an incomplete, and hence misleading, characterization of the capability of density functional theory (DFT) to describe…
We have studied the electronic structure of InN and GaN employing G0W0 calculations based on exact-exchange density-functional theory. For InN our approach predicts a gap of 0.7 eV. Taking the Burnstein-Moss effect into account, the…
An oversight of some previous density functional calculations of the band gaps of wurtzite and cubic InN and of wurtzite GaN by Rinke et al. [Appl. Phys. Lett. 89,161919, 2006] led to an inaccurate and misleading statement relative to…
The structural and electronic properties of cubic GaN are studied within the local density approximation by the full-potential linear muffin-tin orbitals method. The Ga $3d$ electrons are treated as band states, and no shape approximation…
The wurtzite phase group III-Nitrides (AlN, GaN, InN) have attracted great interest due to their successful applications in the optoelectronics since the 90's. In this paper we perform a comprehensive study of AlN, GaN and InN structural…
Using the density functional theory (DFT) with the generalized gradient approximation (GGA), the structural and electronic properties of wurtzite AlN, GaN, InN, and their related alloys, Al$_x$Ga$_{1-x}$N and In$_x$Ga$_{1-x}$N, were…
We report the first quasiparticle calculations of the newly observed wurtzite polymorph of InAs and GaAs. The calculations are performed in the GW approximation using plane waves and pseudopotentials. For comparison we also report the study…
The electronic structure and chemical bonding of wurtzite-GaN investigated by N 1s soft x-ray absorption spectroscopy and N K, Ga M1, and Ga M2,3 emission spectroscopy is compared to that of pure Ga. The measurements are interpreted by…
Semiconductor nanowires based on non-nitride III-V compounds can be synthesized under certain growth conditions to favor the appearance of wurtzite crystal phase. Despite the reports in literature of ab initio band structures for these…
The structural and electronic properties of the wurtzite phase of the InAs and GaAs compounds are, for the first time, studied within the framework of Density Functional Theory (DFT). We used the full-potential linearized augmented plane…
