A variational method for the description of the pressure-induced image mixing in GaAs-based quantum wells

ABSTARCT: The mixing between Γ and X conduction band valleys in GaAs–Ga1-xAlxAs quantum wells is investigated along the lines of a variational model. Trial wavefunctions are depending on a weighting variational parameter that accounts for the mixing by acting as a coefficient in the combination of b...
