In this paper, the valence band offsets Delta E(v)(x) as a function of
the alloy concentration x of the heterojunctions InxGa1-xAs/InxAl1-xA
s are studied, using the average-bond-energy theory in conjunction wit
h a cluster expansion method. It is shown that the variation in Delta
E(v)(x) is nearly linear and the calculation results are in very good
agreement with relevant experimental data.
