摘要
The properties of layer structures in AlxGa1-xN/AlN interfaces were studied by employing first-principles total-energy calculations with density-functional theory. A structural transformation of AlxGa1-xN overlayers from normal wurtzite structure to zinc blende structure was found when the compressive in-plane strain was between two critical values.
