摘要: In this work, we have calculated analytically the energy spectra of electrons and holes in V-grooves quantum wires. To modify wire structure, we have used the equations which suggested in the work of Inoshita et al. We introduce a new effective potential scheme which is applicable and matchable with actual interface geometry of this groove of ridge quantum wires. By applying this effective potential and considering a suitable transformed coordinate that allows the decoupling of the two-dimensional wave functions, we have calculated eigen values of the charge carriers in three states as well as the wave functions. We found that by increasing the curvature at the top of quantum wire [Formula: see text] the energy eigen value decreases. Our results are in good agreement with the earlier investigations.
