Zincblende-related …zb{} groups in database{ }

Note

This section is under construction

Almost all of the groups related to materials with zincblende symmetry contain 23 groups of identical structure, which are listed in the sections:

  • Bands groups in database{ …_zb{} } and database{ …_wz{} }

  • Strain groups in database{ …_zb{} } and database{ …_wz{} }

  • Low-field mobility groups in database{ …_zb{} } and database{ …_wz{} }

  • High-field mobility groups in database{ …_zb{ } } and database{ …_wz{ } }

  • Recombination groups in database{ …_zb{} } and database{ …_wz{} }

  • Phonons in database{ …_zb{} } and database{ …_wz{} }

  • Other groups in database{ …_zb{} } and database{ …_wz{} }

The exceptions are optical_reflectivity{}, optical_absorption{} and optical_emission{}, which contain completly differnet groups (see Optical groups in database{ } for more information). All other keywords can be found below.
