VALENCE BAND STRUCTURE OF PbTe
This paper is a review article covering our work in recent years on PbTe and the alloy semiconductor CdXPbl-,Te. It shows how measurements of the transport and optical properties of these materials support (1) the two valence band model for PbTe in which the principal light mass band is highly non-parabolic and the secondary heavy mass band is parabolic and (2) a value for the Hall-anisotropy f...

متن کاملMonte Carlo Simulation of Electron Transport in PbTe
A Monte Carlo (MC) technique is employed to investigate stationary electron transport in lead telluride (PbTe). Results for electron mobility as a function of lattice temperature, free carrier concentration, and electric field are compared with experimental data and the few available other Monte Carlo simulation results.
متن کاملCrystal and electronic structure of PbTe/CdTe nanostructures
In this article, the authors reported a theoretical study of structural and electronic properties of PbTe inclusions in CdTe matrix as well as CdTe nano-clusters in PbTe matrix. The structural properties are studied by ab initio methods. A tight-binding model is constructed to calculate the electron density of states (DOS) of the systems. In contrast to the ab initio methods, the latter allows ...
متن کاملElectron transport and phonons in atomic wires
A scanning tunnelling microscope (STM) at low temperatures is used to fabricate and measure the electronic transport properties of atomic wires up to 7 atoms in length. We observe that the conductance of these wires, which at zero bias voltage is 2e=h, as corresponds to ballistic electron transport through a single conductance quantum channel, drops sharply at a well-defined voltage due to the ...
