Abstract

The electron energy levels in doped nonabrupt GaAs/AlxGa1−xAs single quantum wells 100 Å wide are calculated. Interface widths varying from zero to four GaAs unit cells are taken into account, as well as band bendings of 0–90 meV. It is shown that interface effects on the energy levels are important and sensitive to the level of doping. When interfaces of only two GaAs unit cells and a band bending of 40 meV are considered, the ground-state (first excited state) energy level shifts toward energies as high as 4 meV (20 meV).
