Crystal structure of Alo.5G.0.5As Based on the zincblende crystal structure for GaAs, sketch the structure of Alo.sGao.5As. The lattice constant for Alo.sGao.5As is a = 5.653 Å. (a) Calculate the atomic density per unit volume for Alo.5Gao.5As. (b) What is the atomic density per unit area on the (100) and (110) planes? (c) The atomic radii for Al, Ga, and As are, respectively, 1.25 Å, 1.30 Å, and 1.15 Å. Using the hard-sphere model, estimate the lattice constant for Alo.5Gao,5As and compare the result with the value given above.
