Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
We present a first-principles calculation of the electronic band structure of (GaAs)1/(InAs)1 (111) superlattice, performed by using ab initio norm-conserving pseudopotentials. The folding in the smaller Brillouin zone and the new symmetry properties of the electronic states have been thoroughly investigated by a comparison with the band structure of the corresponding disordered alloy treated within the virtual-crystal approximation. The interactions between the folded states giving rise to energy splittings and electronic charge localization on given layers have been analyzed at the high-symmetry points. The effects of the new ordering potential, introduced by differentiating the two cations in the virtual crystal, and of the strain potentialarising when the superlattice is subjected to a lateral strain on the (111) planesare separately investigated. We find a strong charge localization in the first two conduction states at the point and a considerable minimum-band-gap reduction in the new ordered structure with respect to the virtual crystal. The strength of this localization and the fundamental band gap depend on the superlattice orientation and on the strain condition. © 1990 The American Physical Society.
