“…1(b)-1(d)], by adding Ge to the interior or the boundary of the quantum well. These include sharp interfaces [18], Ge-rich barrier layers [14], other, more complicated, superlattice barrier structures [43,44], singleatom spikes of Ge inside the quantum well [45], narrow quantum wells [18,20,29], and oscillating Ge concentrations with specially chosen oscillation wavelengths (i.e., the 'Wiggle Well' [42,46]). In this work, we examine a subset of such designs, considering both deterministic and random-alloy effects.…”
