Effective mass approximation
・ Suppose that a perturbation is added to a perfect crystal.
・ How is the electronic state?
Examples of perturbations
an impurity, a quantum well, barrier, superlattice,
potential from a patterned gate, space charge potential

2D-electron confinement in HEMT
The sub-band structure at the interface of the GaAs active channel in a HEMT structure. E1
and E2 are the confined levels. The approximate positions of E1 and E2 as well as the shape of the wave functions are indicated in the lower part of the diagram. In the uper part, an approximate form of the potential profile is shown, including contributions of the conduction band offset and of the space charge potential.
