Resonant-tunneling effects in a parabolic quantum well obtained by application of crossed magnetic and electric fields in a semiconductor quantum barrier

The orbit centre dependence of the energy levels in a single quantum well under external tilted magnetic and electric fields

“…As seen from figure 2(a) for θ = 0 • due to the confinement of the particle we have observed the lower state as a bound state in the range of |z 0 | ≤ 4, whereas as the value of θ increases, the effective height of V (z ) decreases and the bound states tends to become like the bulk Landau levels (see figure 3(a)). In extreme cases, these results are in complete agreement with the previous calculations [18][19][20][21][22]. When we compare the same energy states for small and large values of θ, we see that for small θ energy states are always higher than for the larger values.…”

Finite parabolic quantum wells under crossed electric and magnetic fields: a double-quantum-well problem

“…In the two above special situations the ground state of the system is related to a single well. For a review of the main system properties in the above limiting cases, see the work of Cury, Celeste and Portal [11] and that of Wang and Chuu [12]. However, for intermediate values of both magnetic and electric fields, the behaviour of U eff can be very peculiar.…”
