摘要
Density functional theory calculations are used to explore the geometry and stability of zinc-blende GaN(001). We find that the surface structure changes from a nitrogen adatom structure under nitrogen-rich conditions to a gallium contracted adlayer structure under gallium-rich conditions. Nitrogen adsorbed on this contracted adlayer has the tendency to penetrate the contracted adlayer, thus allowing for epitaxial growth.
