Pr Rabah Riane had tried to do this calculation using Wien2k code as in the following article
Ab initio Calculations of Electronic Band Structure and Charge Densities of Zinc Blende-type GaN, BN and Their Solid Solution B0.5Ga0.5N
The ionicity factor
Three different approaches have been used to calculate the ionicity factor for GaN and BN:
(i) the model of Zaoui et al. based on valence charge density calculations [37],
(ii) the Pauling definition based on electronegativity values of the elements [38]
and the
(iii) Garcia-Cohen approach based on valence charge density calculation [39].
The Zaoui ionicity factor is defined as follows [37]
(Eq. 2): fI =[SA/(SA +λSC)]λ (2)
