摘要: Abstract A pseudopotential formalism under the virtual crystal approximation with and without incorporating effect of alloy disorder is applied to study positron behaviour in cubic Ga x In 1− As y Sb quaternary system lattice matched GaSb. To best our knowledge, this first time a has been carried out on such an alloy. The wavefunctions have calculated employing point-core for ionic potential. Our results show that positronic properties are generally very weakly affected by disorder.
