Abstract
The structural, electronic, dielectric and vibrational properties of zinc-blende (ZB) InAs were studied within the framework of density functional theory (DFT) by employing local density approximation and norm-conserving pseudopotentials. The optimal lattice parameter, direct band gap, static dielectric constant, phonon frequencies and Born effective charges calculated by treating In-4d electrons as valence states are in satisfactory agreement with other reported theoretical and experimental findings. The calculated band gap is reasonably accurate and improved in comparison to other findings. This work will be useful for more computational studies related to semiconductor devices.
