Title: Study of aluminium pnictides by using full potential linearized augmented plane wave (FP-LAPW) method

The exchange-correlation potential was treated using the generalized gradient approximation (GGA). We have also used modified Backe-Johnson (mBJ) method to improve the band gap result. The calculated results such as band gaps are in good agreement with the previous experimental data. The band gaps calculated within mBJ are 1.6 eV, 2.1 eV and 2.3 eV for AlAs, AlSb & AlP respectively.Read More
