For a wide class of technologically relevant compound III-V and II-VI semiconductor materials AC and BC mixed crystals (alloys) of the type A(x)B(1-x)C can be realized. As the electronic properties like the bulk band gap vary continuously…

Zero-dimensional nanocrystals, as obtained by chemical synthesis, offer a broad range of applications, as their spectrum and thus their excitation gap can be tailored by variation of their size. Additionally, nanocrystals of the type ABC…

Electronic structure of zinc blende AlN(1-x)$Px alloy has been calculated from first principles. Structural optimisation has been performed within the framework of LDA and the band-gaps calculated with the modified Becke-Jonson (MBJLDA)…

We report a new model for highly mismatched semiconductor (HMS) alloys. Based on the Anderson impurity Hamiltonian, the model generalizes the recent band anti-crossing (BAC) model, which successfully explains the band bowing in highly…

The bandgap and band bowing parameter of semiconductor alloys are calculated with a fast and realistic approach. The method is a dielectric scaling approximation that is based on a scissor approximation. It adds an energy shift to the…

CdTe is one of the leading materials for low cost, high efficiency thin-film solar cells, because it has a high absorption coefficient and a nearly ideal band gap of 1.48 eV for solar cell according to the Shockley-Queisser limit. However,…

Using first-principles calculations, we show that the conduction and valence band energies and their deformation potentials exhibit a non-negligible compositional bowing in strained ternary semiconductor alloys such as InGaAs. The…
