Alloy fluctuations in the presence of strain in CdTe/(Cd,MnTe) superlattice systems.
01 January 1987
The effect of strain on the valence band offset, handgap and hole mass has been included in a calculation of the density of states arising from alloy fluctuations in the CdTe/(Cd,Mn)Te superlattice system for two growth directions. The consequences of this for the formation of interface states will be discussed.
