Abstract
The effect of interdiffusion on band structure and Bloch amplitudes of three dimensional superlattice composed of Gaussian shaped double quantum rings is investigated using the Fourier transformation to the momentum space. It is shown that the sequence of the principal quasimomentum vectors which correspond to the energy increase depends on superlattice symmetry. Due to interdiffusion both the first and the second minibands of conduction band shift to the region of higher energies and broaden, meanwhile the difference between the behaviors of the dispersion curves in different directions of momentum space gradually disappears. The obtained results indicate to the opportunity of purposeful manipulation of structure characteristics by means of interdiffusion both quantitively and qualitatively.
