Abstract
We present realistic effective-mass calculations of electron and excit on states in [311] GaAs/AlAs corrugated quantum wells (QW's) taking in to consideration a finite barrier potential and flux-conserving bounda ry conditions. One-dimensional minibands are formed in the periodic la teral corrugation potential. Light- and heavy-hole exciton binding ene rgies are calculated as a function of QW effective width and discussed in connection with existing experimental data.
