Nanoscale electronic states

What confinement does to the states themselves: a well between barriers, bonding and antibonding pairs as two wells approach, and the particle in a box rebuilt as fifteen coupled wells whose sixty states carry the envelope of a band.

Lecture 8

Nano-scaled electronic states — basis states, bonding and antibonding

compute, with open-nemo's effective-mass model of the lecture's PCPBT structures (GaAs wells, 0.7 eV barriers, m* = 0.067 m₀): the resonances and |ψ|² of a 10 nm well between 4 nm barriers

Lecture 9

Nano-scaled electronic states — the particle in a box revisited

compute the 60 states of the lecture's box (fifteen 10 nm GaAs wells between 2 nm, 0.7 eV barriers, m* = 0.067 m₀) with open-nemo, and read off what the slides show: envelopes and well amplitudes
