Abstract
We present calculations of hole Landau levels, cyclotron masses, and far-infrared spectra for strained asymmetric p-type Ge-Si$_{x}$Ge$_{1-x}$ quantum wells in a perpendicular magnetic field in order to interpret recent experimental results by Engelhardt et al. [Solid State Electron. 37, 949 (1994)]. Self-consistent hole subband calculations are combined with calculations of the Landau levels ...
We present calculations of hole Landau levels, cyclotron masses, and far-infrared spectra for strained asymmetric p-type Ge-SiGe
quantum wells in a perpendicular magnetic field in order to interpret recent experimental results by Engelhardt et al. [Solid State Electron. 37, 949 (1994)]. Self-consistent hole subband calculations are combined with calculations of the Landau levels using a 6 x 6 {
k·p} Hamiltonian for the topmost
and
bulk valence bands. Our results are in very good agreement with the experimental data. Taking into account the coupling to the split-off band turns out to be important. The complex spectra of hole Landau levels in strained quantum wells remind one of the well known quantum resonance spectra of bulk {
p}-type Ge under uniaxial stress.
