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…

Alloy scattering in random AlGaN alloys drastically reduces the electron mobility and therefore the power-electronics figure of merit. As a result, Al compositions greater than 75% are required to obtain even a two-fold increase of the…
