Abstract

The biaxial strain-modified valence and conduction band offsets of zinc-blende GaN, GaP, GaAs, InN and InAs and optical bowing of strained epitaxial InGaN alloys were discussed. The results were found to fit to a convenient-to-use polynomial and the fits provided in tabular form. The analysis showed that the epitaxial strain reduced the InGaN alloy bowing coefficient compared to relaxed bulk alloys.
