Journal ArticleDOI
Prediction of direct band gaps in monolayer (001) and (111) GaAs/GaP superlattices
R. G. Dandrea,Alex Zunger +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a self-consistent pseudopotential band structure analysis of the monolayer (GaAs)1 (GaP)1 superlattice (SL) in either the (001) or the (111) layer orientation G is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thermodynamic instability of Ag/Au and Cu/Pd metal superlattices
Z.W. Lu,B.M. Klein,Alex Zunger +2 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the formation energies of ApBq superlattices with arbitrary periods p and q and layer orientation Ĝ can be predicted via a "cluster expansion" technique, given the formation energy of short period structures from first-principles calculations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Penetration of electronic perturbations of dilute nitrogen impurities deep into the conduction band ofGaP1−xNx
TL;DR: In this paper, the electronic structure consequences of the perturbations caused by dilute nitrogen impurities in $\mathrm{GaP}$ are studied by means of supercell calculations using a fully atomistic empirical pseudopotential method.
Journal ArticleDOI
Point-ion versus density functional calculations of electric field gradients in ordered GaInP2
Su-Huai Wei,Alex Zunger +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the electric field gradient at an atomic site in the unit cell of a periodic solid can be modeled via the electrostatic field gradient set up by atomic point charges outside that site.
Journal ArticleDOI
Structure and formation energy of steps on the GaAs(001)-2×4 surface
Shengbai Zhang,Alex Zunger +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors derived the motif energies from a set of pseudopotential total energy calculations for flat GaAs(001) surfaces and for point defects in bulk GaAs.
