Abstract: To go deeply into the electronic structure and mechanical properties of As replaces P in AlP crystals, the electronic structure and mechanical properties of semiconductor material AlP1-xAsx(x=0, 0.125, 0.25, 0.375, 0.5, 0.625, 0.75, 0.875, 1) at different doping concentrations have been systematically compared based on the first principle of density functional. The analysis of the data reveals that the electronic structure as well as the mechanical properties can be optimized by adjusting the atomic concentration of As. This facilitates the development of new semiconductor materials. This facilitates the development of new semiconductor materials, and the strong covalent nature of the bonds within the compounds, irrespective of the concentration of AlP1-xAsx(x=0, 0.125, 0.25, 0.375, 0.5, 0.625, 0.75, 0.875, 1) crystals, contributes significantly to the stability of the structures. It is of great significance for the theoretical guidance of the synthesis of experimental compounds.
