We explore the structural and electronic properties of a single layer arsenene using the state of art, first principle approach from density functional theory (DFT). All the calculation was conducted using an open source DFT code, adopted the planewaves (PWs) method by Quantum Espresso (QE). The calculation utilized an exchange correlation potential of electron parametrized by Perdew-Burke-Ernzerhof (PBE) under generalized gradient approximation (GGA) functional scheme. Meanwhile, the pseudopotential assigned for the core electron is the projector typed augmented-wave with the core potential correction, generated using "atomic" code. All those parameters resulted an optimized structure of the honeycomb arsenene with lattice constant of 4.4971 Ǻ. The arsenene layer occupy a bond length value of 2.5964 Ǻ as measured between its neighbouring bonded atoms. From an optimized structure, we explore its electronic bandstructure plotted from 3 highly symmetries point for 2-dimensional (2D) material known as ‘’, ‘’ and ‘’ with 3 electron pathways. The total number of bands considered in bandstruture plotting is 10, where 5 bands will consider as valance bands while another 5 is conduction bands. The bandstructure shows that a single layer flat arsenene exhibits the characteristics of a conductor due to the overlapping of band near to Fermi level. Dirac cone were also noticed near to the Fermi energy level of the bandstructure. Lastly, we study the total electron density for the whole structure to reveal its bonding characteristics. The contour plot of electron densities between two bounded atoms displayed a pure covalent bond characteristic. The findings of this work is expected to contribute to the key of the electronic devices development, optoelectronics, and sensor devices based on 2D material technology.Keywords: flat layer arsenene, density of state, electron density, electronic band structure

In this study we have examined a series of strained heteropeitaxial GaAs/InGaAs/GaAs and InGaAs/GaAs structures, both on (001) GaAs substrates. These heterostructures are potentially very interesting from a device standpoint because of improved band gap properties (InAs has a much smaller band gap than GaAs so there is a large band offset at the InGaAs/GaAs interface), and because of the much higher mobility of InAs. However, there is a 7.2% lattice mismatch between InAs and GaAs, so an InxGa1-xAs layer in a GaAs structure with even relatively low x will have a large amount of strain, and misfit dislocations are expected to form above some critical thickness. We attempt here to correlate the effect of misfit dislocations on the electronic properties of this material.The samples we examined consisted of 200Å InxGa1-xAs layered in a hetero-junction bipolar transistor (HBT) structure (InxGa1-xAs on top of a (001) GaAs buffer, followed by more GaAs, then a layer of AlGaAs and a GaAs cap), and a series consisting of a 200Å layer of InxGa1-xAs on a (001) GaAs substrate.
