Conduction band discontinuity and electron confinement at the Si[subscript x]Ge[subscript 1−x]/Ge interface

Germanium rich heterostructures can constitute a valid alternative to Silicon for the confinement of single electron spins. The conduction band discontinuity in SiGe/Ge heterostructures grown on pure germanium substrate is predicted to allow the confinement of electrons in the germanium, and the con...
