Peculiarities of the Temperature Dependence of the Chemical Potential of a Two-dimensional Electron Gas in Magnetic Field

Аннотация

In the quantum well of semiconductor heterostructures, the motion of electrons (or holes) becomes quasi-two-dimensional, due to the spatial quantization of their energy. In the presence of a magnetic ¯eld applied perpendicular to the plane of the quantum well, the spectrum of carriers becomes completely discrete.
