Abstract

The effect of pressure on the band gap and flatband potential of n- and p-type InP and GaAs was studied to 10 kbar at 300 K. For both InP and GaAs it was determined that the increase of the energy gap of the direct transition is to first order due to an increase in energy of the conduction band edge.
