Electronic structure and conduction-band mass of InN under pressure

POSTER

Abstract

An initio calculations for n-type InN of the band structure and effective masses (optical- and curvature-) in the lowest conduction band as functions of applied pressure and varying electron concentration are presented. The calculations as well as available experimental data demonstrate the strong non-parabolicity of the InN conduction band.
