✦ Synopsis


Numerical simulation based on first-principles calculation is applied to study the structural characteristics and bandenergy properties of wurtzite In x Ga 1 À x N. The lattice constants a and c apparently deviate from the VegardÕs law. The deviation parameter is 0.047 ± 0.011 A ˚for the a lattice constant, and À0.117 ± 0.026 A ˚for the c lattice constant. A band gap energy bowing parameter of 1.782 ± 0.076 eV is obtained with the equilibrium lattice constants, and 1.916 ± 0.068 eV is obtained with the lattice constants derived from the VegardÕs law.
