InGaAs photocathode with nanowire structure is studied by first-principles approach. The nanowire-structured InGaAs photocathodes with GaAs or InP substrate are compared from three aspects: lattice structure, electronic structure and optical properties. Interfaces of In0.5Ga0.5As-GaAs and In0.5Ga0.5As-InP are focused on research. In order to better describe the optical properties, the light reception on the side of InGaAs nanowires is also analyzed. Crystal structures close to the two sides of interfaces are both relaxed. Electronic structure and optical properties shows that the photocathode with GaAs substrate is more beneficial to the absorption of light in the near-infrared band. In additional the electric field distribution at the interface promote the transition of photoelectrons. Thereby the photoemission efficiency of the photocathode is improved.

Active accounts were imported to the new platform and assigned a random password by default. In order to access your account you need to access the login page and go through the Lost Password dialog (involves the system sending you an email with instructions) in order to reset your password. This step is necessary as passwords are kept in hashed form and the new platform uses modern hashing algorithms incompatible with the previous ones.
