Abstract

A simple model to predict the band offsets in semiconductor heterojunctions is presented. The model is based on the formation of an effective dipole induced by the penetration of bulk band states into a quantum barrier in the neighboring semiconductor. Application of the model to a large number of heterojunctions gives band offset values in good agreement with experiment.
