Using effective-mass Hamiltonian model of semiconductors quantum well structures, we investigate the electronic structures of the -conduction and L-conduction subbands of GeSn/GeSiSn strained quantum well structure with an arbitrary composition. Our theoretical model suggests that the band struc...
