摘 要:BAs is a III–V semiconductor with ultra-high thermal conductivity,but many of its electronic properties are *** work applies predictive atomistic calculations to investigate the properties of BAs heterostructures,such as strain effects on band alignments and carrier mobility,considering BAs as both a thin film and a substrate for lattice-matched *** results show that isotropic biaxial in-plane strain decreases the band gap independent of sign or *** addition,1%biaxial tensile strain increases the in-plane electron and hole mobilities at 300 K by60%compared to the unstrained values due to a reduction of the electron effective mass and of hole interband ***,BAs is shown to be nearly lattice-matched with InGaN and ZnSnN2,two important optoelectronic semiconductors with tunable band gaps by alloying and cation disorder,respectively.
