Intervalley coupling for interface-bound electrons in silicon: An effective mass study

Intervalley coupling for interface-bound electrons in silicon: An effective mass study

Orbital degeneracy of the electronic conduction band edge in silicon is a potential roadblock to the storage and manipulation of quantum information involving the electronic spin degree of freedom in this host material. This difficulty may be mitigated near an interface between Si and a barrier material, where intervalley scattering …
