In this work we study the structural stability and electronic properties of the Beryllium sulphide nanowires (NWs) in both zinc blende (ZB) and wurtzite (WZ) phases with triangle and hexagonal cross section, using first principle…

Ground state properties of SiC, AlN, GaN and InN in the zinc-blende and wurtzite structures are determined using an ab initio scheme. For the self-consistent field part of the calculations, the Hartree-Fock program Crystal has been used.…

The electronic structure of AlN in wurtzite and zinc-blende phases is studied experimentally and theoretically. By using x-ray emission spectroscopy, the Al 3p, Al 3s and N 2p spectral densities are obtained. The corresponding local and…

Controlling the crystal phase and lattice mismatch of semiconductors offers a powerful route to engineer electronic and optical properties of heterostructures. As a consequence, semiconductors in the wurtzite phase are increasingly sought…

Half-Heusler (HH) phases have garnered much attention as thermally stable and non-toxic thermoelectric materials for power conversion. The most studied alloys to date utilize Hf, Zr, and Ti as the base components. These alloys can achieve a…

Using NMTO-downfolding technique we have revisited the issue of relative stability between zincblende (ZB) and wurtzite (WZ) symmetries in case of CdS, CdSe and CdTe semiconductors. Our computed ionicity factors using accurate…

The structural and optical properties of 3 different kinds of GaAs nanowires with 100% zinc-blende structure and with an average of 30% and 70% wurtzite are presented. A variety of shorter and longer segments of zinc-blende or wurtzite…

In this article we employ density functional theory in the generalized gradient approximation to investigate the structural and electronic properties of the solid solution alloy $\text{Zn}\text{Se}_x\text{S}_{1-x}$ in the wurtzite…

Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations, within the virtual crystal alloy approximation, are performed, along with the development of a Landau-type model employing a symmetry-allowed analytical expression of the internal energy and…

Collinear and non-collinear spin structures of wurtzite phase CoO often appearing in nano-sized samples are investigated using first-principles density functional theory calculations. We examined the total energy of several different spin…

Employing first-principles calculations we study the structural, electronic and magnetic properties of the [Sc$_{1-x}$V$_x$]C and [Sc$_{1-x}$V$_x$]Si alloys. In their equilibrium rocksalt structure all alloys are non-magnetic. The…

Wurtzite ZnO can be substituted with up to ~30% MgO to form a metastable ZnMgO alloy while still retaining the wurtzite structure. Because this alloy has a larger band gap than pure ZnO, ZnMgO/ZnO quantum wells and superlattices are of…

The Mg-Zn and Al-Zn binary alloys have been investigated theoretically under static isotropic pressure. The stable phases of these binaries on both initially hexagonal-close-packed (HCP) and face-centered-cubic (FCC) lattices have been…

Pseudobinary heterostructural alloys of ZnO with MgO or CdO are studied by composing the system locally of clusters with varying ratio of cations. We investigate fourfold (wurtzite structure) and sixfold (rocksalt structure) coordination of…

Lattice vibrations of the wurtzite-type AlN have been studied by Raman spectroscopy under high pressure up to the structural phase transition at 20 GPa. We have shown that the widely debated bond-bending E_2^1 mode of w-AlN has an abnormal…

Our experiments demonstrate that alloying the cubic-phase YbN into the wurtzite-phase AlN results in clear mechanical softening and enhanced electromechanical coupling of AlN. First-principle calculations reproduce experimental results…

We investigate the effect of basal-plane stacking faults on the structural, electronic, and polarization properties of wurtzite GaN and ZnO. This theoretical study is performed within density-functional theory (DFT) using periodic hexagonal…

We study the electronic properties of GaAs nanowires composed of both the zincblende and wurtzite modifications using a ten-band k.p model. In the wurtzite phase, two energetically close conduction bands are of importance for the…

Crystal phase semiconductor heterostructures allow for electron confinement without uncertainties caused by chemical intermixing found in material heterostructures and are candidates for next generation optoelectronics devices ranging from…

We develop a nucleation-based model to explain the formation of the wurtzite (WZ) crystalline phase during the vapor-liquid-solid growth of free-standing nanowires of zinc-blende (ZB) semiconductors. We first show that, in nanowires,…
