Abstract
Energy band gap and lattice constant contours are presented for the nine quaternary alloys formed from Al, Ga, In and P, As, Sb. The quaternary bandgaps were obtained using an interpolation formula proposed by Moonet al. The quater nary lattice constants were obtained by use of a linear interpolation technique using the binary lattice constants as boundary values.
