Abstract
In this study, we determined the thermodynamic properties of two-dimensional semiconducting nanoporous superlattices. We investigated the effects of the number of quantum dots, system length, composition parameter x in AlxGa1-xAs medium, external electric field intensity and direction, and external magnetic field strength on the specific heat of the this system. Based on these parameters, we found that the heat capacity peak position and amplitude were effectively tunable, and we could adjust these quantities to the desired values. We also compared four different semiconducting systems comprising AlxGa1-xAs, GaN, InSb, and ZnSe to determine the extent of the tunability in these systems. Our findings may help researchers to select a desirable system with the typical heat capacity height and position. We employed a finite difference method to solve the resulting two-dimensional Schrodinger equation and then evaluated the heat capacities of the systems based on the energy fluctuations.
