Abstract

Molecular dynamics calculations of the adiabatic elastic constants of group III-Nitrides for temperatures ranging from 300 to 900 K have been performed. The results show good agreement with first-principles calculations. The moduli decreased with increasing temperature. The structural properties of zinc-blende GaN, AlN and InN are reported. Good agreement between the calculated and experimental values of the lattice constant, the cohesion energy, and the bulk modulus and its derivative are obtained.
