摘要
A theoretical investigation on how the band structure of bulk semiconductors specifically affects the quantum confinement in quantum dots is presented, using Ge as an example. The intrinsic difference of the quantum confinement of different symmetrical valence states may bring some completely new physics as the quantum dot size decreases. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science Ltd.
