Usage/Remarks

 <note>
  <p>While the samples appear homogeneous in terms of local variations in 
   transition energy and PL intensity, the response to external electric fields 
   is strongly inhomogeneous, which can most likely be attributed to local 
   variations in the AlGaN back contact conductivity as well as inhomogeneities 
   in the passivation process.</p>

 <p>The geometric optimization and electronic transport properties are 
  all calculated by a developed <italic>ab-initio</italic> software package 
  Atomistix ToolKit, which is based on the spin-polarized density-functional 
  theory combined with the non-equilibrium Greens functions. ...</p>
