Abstract
A theory of impurity levels in semiconductor heterostructures based upon th e fraction-dimensional space is reevaluated here for bulk solids. The param etrization of impurities in bulk solids is necessary as a preliminary step in developing a theory for heterostructures. It is found that the bulk theo ry agrees closely with the conventional classification of impurities as dee p/shallow and anisotropic/isotropic for donors in direct-gap hosts.
