Abstract

In this chapter, the optothermoelectric power in III–V quantum well-effective mass superlattices and III–V quantum well superlattices with graded interfaces in the presence of a quantizing magnetic field have been studied in Sects. 13.2.1 and 13.2.2, respectively. Sections 13.3 and 13.4 contain, respectively, the results and discussion and open research problems.
