Ga Concentration Effect on the CuIn1-xGaxSe2 Electronic Properties

This paper reports some calculations of the electronic properties of CuIn1-xGaxSe2 (x = 0.0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, 1.0) compound, by using the Tight-Binding (TB) method and Virtual Crystal Approximation (VCA). It is considered the ideal case and with the tetragonal () and anionic ()...

description This paper reports some calculations of the electronic properties of CuIn1-xGaxSe2 (x = 0.0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, 1.0) compound, by using the Tight-Binding (TB) method and Virtual Crystal Approximation (VCA). It is considered the ideal case and with the tetragonal () and anionic () distortions. In both cases, the CuIn1-xGaxSe2 is a direct semiconductor at Γ, for all concentrations.It was found that the Crystal Field Splitting (CFS) at the Γ point depends mainly on the tetragonal distortion. The CFS is positive for x &lt, 0,32 and negative for x &gt, 0.32. This behavior is due that when x is increasing, the unit cell shrinks, approaching the pseudo-atom (In,Ga) to the Se atom.

(CuIn1-xGaxSe2 Virtual Crystal Approximation Crystal Field Splitting) This paper reports some calculations of the electronic properties of CuIn1-xGaxSe2 (x = 0.0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, 1.0) compound, by using the Tight-Binding (TB) method and Virtual Crystal Approximation (VCA). It is considered the ideal case and with the tetragonal () and anionic () distortions.

Se reportan cálculos de propiedades electrónicas del compuesto CuIn1−xGaxSe2 (x = 0,0, 0,2, 0,4, 0,6, 0,8, 1,0), usando el método Tight-Binding (TB) y Virtual Crystal Approximation (VCA). Se considera el caso ideal y con las distorsiones tetragonal (η) y aniónica (μ). En ambos casos, el CuIn1−xGaxSe2 es un semiconductor directo en Γ, para todas las concentraciones. Se encontró que el Crystal Field Splitting (CFS) en el punto Γ depende principalmente de la distorsión tetragonal. El CFS es positivo para x &lt, 0,32 y negativo para x &gt, 0,32. Este comportamiento se debe a que cuando aumenta x, la celda unitaria se contrae, acercando el pseudoátomo (In,Ga) al átomo de Se.
