Abstract
The empirical pseudopotential method including the spin-orbit interaction i s used to calculate the band structure of the substitution solid solution I nSb1-xBix. This makes it possible to study the dependence of the band gap o n the temperature and composition of the alloy in the virtual-crystal appro ximation. The calculations are in good agreement with the available experim ental data. (C) 1999 American Institute of Physics. [S1063-7826(99)00703-6] .
