Notes:
Self-consistent one-electron state calculations are carried out, for the first time, for a gallium vacancy in the GaAs1-xPx alloy. The cluster model, within the framework of the multiple-scattering Xα theory, is used to calculate several charge states of the vacancy. Suitable clusters have been considered in order to simulate the phosporous concentration x in the alloy and how the nearest-neghbors configurations affect the vacancy-related levels. It is found that the defect introduces a deep energy level into the band gap which follows the host-valence band edge as x varies. The same trend in donor and acceptor levels is observed, with a very small Mott-Hubbard potential energy. © 1993 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
