Abstract

The form factor and the effective mass are shown to be significantly altered in narrow quantum wells owing to the extension of the wavefunction into the barrier layers. The mobility is found to change as a result by a large factor (a factor of 12 for a well width of 0.5 nm). Modifications caused by the band non-parabolicity are also discussed.
