Abstract:We perform a theoretical study of InxAl1‐xN/ZnO and InxGa1‐xN/ZnO strained Quantum Well (QW) Lasers oriented along the non‐polar A‐plane axis. In order to determine the energy band‐offsets in both heterostructures as a function of alloy composition, we use the ab‐initio method to compute the total energies of these systems. Then, we use the k·P method within the envelop function formalism to study conduction and valence energy subband structures for various alloy compositions and well widths. Finally, we calcu… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
