We calculate the effect of a spatially dependent effective mass (SPDEM) [adapted from R. N. Costa Filho et al. Phys. Rev. A., textbf{84} 050102 (2011)] on an electron and hole confined in a quantum well (QW). In the work of Costa Filho et al., the translation operator is modified to include an inverse character length scale, $gamma$, which defines the SPDEM. The introduction of $gamma$ means translations are no longer additive. In nonadditive space, we choose a `skewed Gaussian confinement potential defined by the replacement $xrightarrowgamma^{-1}ln(1+gamma x)$ in the usual Gaussian potential. Within the parabolic approximation $gamma$ is inversely related to the QW thickness and we obtain analytic solutions to our confinement Hamiltonian. Our calculation yields a reduced dispersion relation for the gap energy ($E_G$) as a function of QW thickness, $D$: $E_Gsim D^{-1}$, compared to the effective mass approximation: $E_Gsim D^{-2}$. Additionally, nonadditive space contracts the position space metric thus increasing the occupied momentum space and reducing the effective mass, in agreement the relation: $m_o^{*-1}propto frac{partial^2 E}{partial v{k}^2}$. The change in the effective mass is shown to be a function of the confinement potential via a point canonical transformation. Our calculation agrees with experimental measurements of $E_G$ for Si and Ge QWs.
We report density-dependent effective hole mass measurements in undoped germanium quantum wells. We are able to span a large range of densities ($2.0-11times10^{11}$ cm$^{-2}$) in top-gated field effect transistors by positioning the strained buried
The effective g-factor of 2D holes in modulation doped mbox{p-SiGe/Ge/SiGe} structures was studied. The AC conductivity of samples with hole densities from $3.9 times 10^{11}$~to $6.2 times 10^{11}~text{cm}^{-2}$ was measured in perpendicular magneti
Near surface indium arsenide quantum wells have recently attracted a great deal of interest since they can be interfaced epitaxially with superconducting films and have proven to be a robust platform for exploring mesoscopic and topological supercond
Recent study of a high-mobility 2D hole gas in a strained Ge quantum well revealed strong transport anisotropy in the quantum Hall regime when the magnetic field was tilted away from the sample normal. In the present study we demonstrate that the ani
We present a calculation of the wavevector-dependent subband level splitting from spin-orbit coupling in Si/SiGe quantum wells. We first use the effective-mass approach, where the splittings are parameterized by separating contributions from the Rash
