  • Abstract
    We report on the use of the Tersoff empirical potential applied to GaAs. Cohesive and elastic properties, as well as phonon frequencies and Grüneisen parameters at the Γ and X points, are calculated and compared to experimental data. The limitations of the potential and its existing parametrisations are discussed.
