Our theoretical method is based on a current formula involving the spectral functions of the system, and thus allows, in principle, a systematic investigation of various interaction mechanisms. Taking into account impurity scattering and optical phonons we obtain a good quantitative agreement with existing experimental data from Helgesen and Finstad (J. Appl. Phys. 69, 2689, (1991)). Furthermore the calculated spectral functions indicate a significant increase of the average intersubband spacing compared to the bare level differences which might explain the experimental trend.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "1996-10-15T13:54:14.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "doped multiple quantum wells", "perpendicular electronic transport", "microscopic modelling", "spectral functions", "bare level differences" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 10, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
