The electronic potential distributions resulting from space-charge doping are calculated for the semiconductor (i.e., the smaller-band-gap) layer in compositional superlattices, in particular, those consisting of hydrogenated amorphous silicon. The quantum-mechanical motion of an electron in this potential is then analyzed. The numerical results are discussed in regard to the published optical and electrical measurements.
