QUANTUM EFFECTS, HEAVY DOPING, AND THE EFFECTIVE MASS

Focusing on the quantum effects in effective mass (EM) within heavily doped nanostructures, this monograph explores a variety of materials, including nonlinear optical compounds and super-lattices. It examines how intense light and strong electric fields alter semiconductor band structures, impacting the performance of optoelectronic devices. The study also addresses the measurement of band gaps under external fields and investigates the effects of magnetic quantization and field interactions on EM in these advanced materials.
