Abstract

A theory of elastic strain relaxation is developed for ternary semiconductor alloys A1-xBxC with bond length mismatch. The theory is applied to the problem of local structure in Zn1-xMnxSe using two models that separately consider random and ordered cation-site occupation. Comparison of results from the models with experimental data for the local structure suggests that the alloy is random and that both anion and cation sublattices relax.
