Abstract
AbstractThe compositional dependence of optical, mechanical, thermal properties, and lattice vibrations of InPxAsySb1–x–y quaternary semiconductor alloys lattice-matched to InAs substrate has been studied. In this study, the physical properties of the binary elements InAs, InSb, and InP that make up the quaternary alloy were employed. Under the virtual crystal approximation (VCA), the empirical pseudo-potential model (EPM) was used to carry out the research. Our findings are in good agreement with the available experimental and theoretical values. In the literature, the composition effect on the optical, mechanical and thermal properties of the InPxAsySb1–x–y/InAs system has not been thoroughly investigated. As a result, we focused on these properties as a function of composition.
