Some relative simulations are performed using CA-PZ form of local density approximation in the framework of density functional theory. The supercell of intrinsic GaAs is calculated and optimized by using different methods, and the LDA-CA-PZ gives the most stable structure. The band gap of InzGa1-x As tends to decrease with the increasing In concentration. For the case of In0.0625Ga0.9375NyAs1-y, the band gap will show slight difference when N concentration is larger than 18. 75~. The optical transition of In dopant in GaAs exhibits a red shift, while it is a blue shift for the N dopant in InGaAs. Besides, dielectric function, reflectivity, refractive index and loss function in different doping model of InxGa1-xNyAs1-y are also discussed.展开更多
