Iteration scheme for the solution of the two-dimensional schrodinger-poisson equations in quantum structures

TL;DR: In this article, a fast and robust iterative method for obtaining selfconsistent solutions to the coupled system of Schrodinger's and Poisson's equations is presented, where a simple expression describing the dependence of the quantum electron density on the electrostatic potential is derived.

Plasmons and magnetoplasmons in semiconductor heterostructures

TL;DR: In this article, the status of the theory and experiment which can contribute to our knowledge of plasmon excitations in synthetic semiconductor heterostructures is surveyed. But, beyond the presentation of the results achieved, there is a need to examine carefully the methodologies employed to obtain such results.

Self‐consistent calculation of electron and hole inversion charges at silicon–silicon dioxide interfaces

TL;DR: In this article, the charge distribution at a semiconductor insulator interface has been calculated, both for holes and electrons, by solving Schrodinger's and Poisson's equations self-consistently for particles obeying Fermi-Dirac statistics.

Multilayer Black Phosphorus as a Versatile Mid-Infrared Electro-optic Material

TL;DR: Simulation results show that operating black phosphorus thin films in the quantum-confined Franz-Keldysh regime can improve the maximal attainable absorption as well as power efficiency compared to its graphene counterpart.
