Solved Gallium arsenide (GaAs) and gallium phosphide (GaP)
Question: Gallium arsenide (GaAs) and gallium phosphide (GaP) are compound semiconductors that have room temperature bandgap energies of 1.42 and 2.26 eV, respectively, and form solid solutions in all proportions. The bandgap of the alloy increases approximately linearly with GaP additions (in mol%). Alloys of these two materials are …
