The energy bands and the density of states of the ultra-thin-layered s
emiconductor superlattices (GaAs)(n)/(AlAs)(n) with n = 1, 2, 3, and 4
layers are calculated by the sp(3)s tight-binding method, utilizing
the Ga0.5Al0.5As alloying states for the interface parameters. A compa
rison of our theoretical results with other experimental and theoretic
al data shows good agreement.
