Abstract
We present a three-band k · P Hamiltonian to describe the conduction band dispersion of ordered GaNxAs1-x crystals for low N concentrations (x ≲ 0.05). The model includes interactions between the highest valence band, lowest conduction band and a higher-lying band formed by N resonant states. The k · P conduction band dispersion is in excellent agreement with full tight-binding calculations, and can be used as a basis for a wide range of studies of Ga1-yIny,NxAs1-x heterostructures and devices.
