Surface energies of AlN allotropes from first principles

In this letter we present first-principles calculations of the surface energies of rock-salt (B1), zinc-blende (B3) and wurtzite (B4) AlN allotropes. Of several low-index facets, the highest energies are obtained for monoatomic surfaces (i.e. of only either Al or N atoms): [Formula: see text] and [F...
