Interference effect in multivalley quantum well structures

Abstract
The energy spectra of a multivalley quantum well structure are investigated by both the tight-binding and the effective-mass methods. It is shown that the energy spectrum as a function of the quantum well width exhibits an interference pattern due to the mixing of Bloch states of the well material with wave vectors near the two equivalent conduction band minima.
