Abstract

The energy subbands in pseudomorphic p-type Si/Si1−xGex /Si quantum wells are calculated within the multiband effective-mass approximation that describes the heavy, light and split-off hole valence bands. We examine the intersubband transitions in this system and the selection rules are obtained for a light polarization vector parallel or perpendicular to the growth direction. Comparison is made with other theories and experiment.
