Abstract: The band gaps of ternary zinc blende BxIn1-xP and BxGa1-xP alloys are calculated using first principles in the generalized gradient approximation (GGA),and their bowing parameters are obtained.For BxIn1-xP,the bowing parameters are b_Eg(Γ)=4.32eV and b_Eg(X)=1.8eV,the crossover composition from direct to indirect gap is 0.47,the direct gap varies from 1.33 to 1.47eV,and the addition of a small amount of B will reduce the alloy gap.For BxGa1-xP,the whole x range is indirect gap,and the bowing parameters are b_Eg(Γ)=1.37eV and b_Eg(X)=2.46eV.The reason that BxIn1-xP and BxGa1-xP have relatively large bowing parameters is the large lattice mismatch between their binary alloys.
