- First-principles hybrid functional calculations have been performed to study the crystal structure, band gap energy, and elastic coefficients of GaAs1-xBix solid solutions.

Compared to O-16 and O-32 supercells, GaAs1-xBix alloys in W-16 structure are more stable with the lower formation energy for a given Bi concentration. The lattice constants of GaAs1-xBix solid solutions follow the Vegard's Law regardless of the three different structures.
