Abstract

Various cases of size quantization in narrow-gap crystals of cubic or tetrahedral symmetry in the three-band Kane approximation are analyzed. Expressions for the energy spectrum depending on the two-dimensional wave vector are obtained for two different cases, differing in the range of current carrier energy values. The size-quantized energy spectrum of electrons in the conduction band and holes in the subband of light holes in InSb and GaAs semiconductors is analyzed in the three-band Kane model.
