Effect of Dimension & Material Composition on Transmission Coefficient and Tunneling Current of Double Quantum Barrier Structure with Band Nonparabolicity

“…By reducing the device size comparable to electron wavelength, spatial confinement along one, two or three dimensions can be achieved in semiconductor hetero structure devices. This may help to physically realize quantum well, wire or dot structures, which have numerous electronic and photonic applications [1][2][3]. The region of confinement is coupled to the external world through tunneling barriers which vividly reflects the dominance of the quantum effects in the transport phenomena.…”
