Size quantization of charge carriers in lead salt cylindrical quantum wires

Abstract

A formalism for determining energy eigenstates of cylindrical lead salt quantum wires in the multiple-band envelope-function approximation is developed. Electron energy dispersion for quantum wire subbands within the conduction and valence bands is found.
