摘要
En 中文
The direct bandgap found in hexagonal germanium and some of its alloys with silicon allows for an optically active material within the group -IV semiconductor family with various potential technological applications. However, there remain some unanswered questions regarding several aspects of the band structure, including the strength of the electric dipole transitions at the center of the Brillouin zone. Using the k p method near the F point, including 10 bands, and taking spin -orbit coupling into account, we obtain a self -consistent model that produces the correct band curvatures, with previously unknown inverse effective mass parameters, to describe 2H-Ge via fitting to ab initio data and to calculate effective masses for electrons and holes. To understand the weak dipole coupling between the lowest conduction band and the top valance band, we start from a spinless 12 -band model and show that when adding spin -orbit coupling, the lowest conduction band hybridizes with a higher -lying conduction band, which cannot be explained by the spinful 10 -band model. With the help of L & ouml;wdin's partitioning, we derive the effective low -energy Hamiltonian for the conduction bands for the possible spin dynamics and nanostructure studies and in a similar manner, we give the best -fit parameters for the valanceband -only model that can be used in the transport studies. Using the self -consistent 10 -band model, we include the effects of a magnetic field and predict the electron and hole g factor of the conduction and valance bands. Finally, we give an ellipticity analysis of the found effective mass tensor, to ensure the uniqueness of the solutions for its application to heterostructures.
