Transiciones de Fase Inducidas por Presión en los Compuestos GaN, InN y AlN / Phase Transitions Induced by Pressure in the Compounds GaN, InN and AlN
Resumen
Realizamos un estudio de las transiciones de fase estructurales de los nitruros III-V GaN, InN y AlN empleando el método de ondas planas aumentadas y linealizadas en la formulación de potencial completo (FP:LAPW) dentro del marco de la teoría del funcional de la densidad (DFT). Para el potencial de correlación- intercambio se utilizó la aproximación de gradiente generalizado (GGA) con la parametrización de Perdew-Burke-Ernzerhof (PBE). Reportamos valores de los parámetros de red a, c/a y u, volumen, energía y módulo de volumen, presiones de transición y cambio de volumen en las transiciones de fase wurtzita–rocksalt (WZ–RS) y wurtzita–zincblenda (WZ–ZB). Nuestros resultados muestran un buen acuerdo con otros reportes experimentales y teóricos e indican que la fase más estable es la WZ siguiéndole la ZB y RS, y que las transiciones de fase estudiadas corresponden a transiciones de fase de primer orden.
Palabras clave
