Electronic properties of double GaAlAs/GaAs and GaInAs/GaAs quantum wells as dependent on well width
Abstract
Herein, the electronic properties of double Ga1-x Alx As/GaAs quantum wells (A model) and
Ga1-x Inx As/GaAs quantum wells (B model) have
been examined related to the well width. The wave functions, the subband
energies and the probability densities of these systems under effective mass
approach were determined by the solution of Schrödinger equation. According to
the results obtained, the major diversities of A and B models are the effective
mass and the energy gap. For A model, GaAlAs is the barrier and GaAs is the
well. Whereas for B model, GaAs is the barrier and GaInAs is the well. Also,
the potential depth and the energy levels of A model are continuously smaller
than of B model. The well width has a great impact on the electronic features
of the double quantum well (DQW). These features have a convenient attention
for the purpose of adjustable semiconductor devices.
