Abstract:This Tutorial provides a comprehensive overview of various k⋅p models used to describe the electronic band structures of semiconductors with cubic diamond and zinc blende symmetries. Our primary focus is on III–V semiconductors, with a particular emphasis on highly mismatched alloys. We begin our exploration with the six-band k⋅p model, which effectively captures interactions within the highest valence bands. Following that, we delve into the intricacies of the eight-band k⋅p model, which takes into account st… Show more
