摘要
A relationship among the resonance energies in superlattices of different numbers of well and barrier layers has been established. It has been shown that the resonance wave vectors can be related to each other in such systems. The calculated dependence of resonance energies and resonance wave vectors on the mole fraction, and of the thickness of barrier layers of superlattices, throws new light on the quantum effects of electron transport through the superlattices.
