ABSTRACT: Nanoscale superlattice has been investigated theoretically. It has been
shown that the deformation effects on the energy spectrum of nanoscale
superlattice by changing the interatomic distances as well as varying the width
and height of the potential barrier. The potential deformation has been
estimated. It has been shown that for different edges of forbidden bands the
deformation potential has different values. It has been also analyzed the
dependence of the effective mass on energy. It has been determined that the
effective mass crosses periodically the zero mark. It has been concluded that
this phenomena contributes to the periodic change of the oscillation frequency
de Haas-van Alphen effect.
