Abstract
On the basis of the quasistationary state approximation, the asymptotic transfer method (ATM) was extended to calculate the energy spectra, envelope functions of carriers and dispersion relations of Ga1âxAlxAs multiple sawtooth quantum wells (MSQW) in the presence of an electric field applied along the growth direction and a magnetic field parallel to the MSQW interfaces. It turned out that the energy spectra revealed the Landau-like behavior of carriers under a magnetic field. The envelope functions of carriers displayed obvious fluctuation and the dispersion relations showed a non-parabolic shape.
