    Abstract:

    This study introduces a comprehensive theoretical framework for accurately calculating the electronic band-structure of strained long-wavelength InAs/GaSb type-II superlattices. Utilizing an eight-band Hamiltonian in conjunction with a scattering matrix method, the model effectively incorporates quantum confinement, strain effects, and interface states. This robust and numerically stable approach achieves exceptional agreement with experimental data, offering a reliable tool for analyzing and engineering the band structure of complex multilayer systems.
