Abstract
Energy band structure of AlAs and GaAs is analyzed in terms of the energy structure of the constituent atoms. Conduction band wave functions are pro- jected on s-, p-, and d-symmetry atomic orbitals. The resulting information is combined with the eigenenergies of Al and Ga atoms, in order to-discuss the character of the band gaps, and the sign of deformation potentials.
