Abstract
A procedure for the self-consistent calculation of the electronic stru cture of effective-mass quantum wells is described. The procedure uses a parametrized electrostatic potential, and also takes into account t he exchange-correlation effects within the local-density approximation . Numerical calculations, performed for InP/In0.69Ga0.31As wells at di ffering temperatures and donor doping levels, indicate that the self-c onsistent procedure is indeed necessary if reasonably accurate calcula tions of the charge density, potential, etc., are required.
