Modeling of Copper Indium/Gallium Diselenide Superlattices

ORAL

Abstract

The copper indium/gallium diselenide superlattice is investigated numerically for different layer lengths of this particular lattice matched crystal. The main emphasis is on applying the Kronig-Penny model for the relevant band gap energies. By varying the sizes of the layers, the region where superlattice behavior should exist is determined.
