Abstract :
The correlated function expansion (CFE) interpolation procedure was presented to efficiently estimate principal energy band gaps and lattice constants of the quaternary alloy AlxGa1−xSbyAs1−y over the entire composition variable space. The lattice matching conditions between x and y for the alloy AlxGa1−xSbyAs1−y substrated to InAs and GaSb were obtained by optimizing the alloy lattice constant to that of the substrates. The corresponding principal band gaps (E(Γ), E(L), and E(X)) were also calculated along the lattice matching condition on each substrate (InAs and GaSb).
