Firs-Principles Investigation of the Electronic and Optical Properties of B-Doped ZnO under Pressure

Article Preview

Abstract:

Based on the density functional theory (DFT), the first-principles approach is used to study the electronic band structure of B-doped wuritzite ZnO with different pressure. The pressure effects on the lattice parameters, electronic band structures, and partial density of states (PDOS) of crystalline B-doped ZnO are calculated up to 8 GPa. Moreover, the evolution of the dielectric function, absorption coefficient (), reflectivity (), and the real part of the refractive index () at high pressure are also presented. Keywords: high pressure; density functional theory; B-doped ZnO.
