摘要
The electron subband structure in a thin (100) silicon film is analyzed based on a two-band k.p theory. For unprimed subbands the dependence of the nonparabolicity parameter on film thickness is obtained. The two-band k.p theory gives a thickness dependence of the effective masses for primed subbands. Limitations of the model are discussed. The importance of the nonparabolicity parameter dependence on the film thickness for transport is demonstrated.
