摘要: Abstract Using the plane-wave ultrasoft pseudopotential method based on first-principles density functional theory (DFT), geometric and electronic structures of Zn doped Ga 0.5 Al As (001) β 2 (2×4) reconstruction surface are researched. Twelve sites at different atomic layers chosen; influence atom structure, formation energy, ionicity, band states (DOS) work function is Geometric structure change caused by replacing to more obvious than Zn. The models formed stable that Doping beneficial for photoemission.
