Electron g-factor in nanostructures: continuum media and atomistic approach
Abstract We report studies of $${\varvec{k}}$$ k -dependent Landé g-factor, performed by both continuous media approximation $${\varvec{k}}{\varvec{\cdot }}{\varvec{p}}$$ k · p method, and atomistic tight-binding $$\hbox {sp}^3\hbox {d}^5\hbox {s}^*$$ sp 3 d 5 s ∗ approach. We propose an effective,...
