It is considered the possibility of determining the density of states of the two-dimensional electron gas as a function of total concentration n s on the basis of some experimental data. For this purpose it is used the known value of the effective mass at the Fermi level from the cyclotron resonance measurements and the number of quantized levels located below the Fermi level from the measurements of the Shubnikov-de Haas. The obtained density of states is compared with model calculation that takes into account the non-parabolic conduction band. The experimental data and model calculations correspond to the hetero structured quantum well InAs/AlSb with width of 15nm.
One-band effective mass model is used to simulation of electron gas properties in quantum well. We calculate of dispersion curves for first three subbands. Calculation results of Fermi energy, effective mass at Fermi level as function of electron concentration are presented. The obtained results are good agreement with the experimental dates.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
