Explicit treatment of the gallium 3 d electrons in GaN using the plane-wave pseudopotential method
Abstract
The plane-wave pseudopotential (PWPP) method has been used to calculate structural and electronic properties of wurtzite and zinc-blende GaN. In contrast to previous studies using the PWPP method, the gallium 3d electrons were treated as valence electrons. This yields larger lattice constants and smaller energy gaps as compared with previous PWPP results. For wurtzite, the three structural parameters were found to be a=3.162 \AA{}, c=5.142 \AA{}, and u=0.377. For zinc blende, the cubic lattice constant was found to be ${\mathit{a}}_{0}$=4.460 \AA{}. The lattice constants are about 1% smaller than measured values and the cubic lattice constant is within about 0.2% of results from full-potential all-electron calculations. This study demonstrates that it is both possible and practical to treat gallium 3d electrons explicitly using the PWPP method.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
