Abstract

This study examines how quantum confinement energy affects the electrical characteristics represented by the energy gap. and the activation energy of indium arsenide (InAs) and indium phosphide (Inp) was studied using a computer program (MATLAB) version (R2012a), which is based on the characteristic matrix theory and Bruce's model, we found that the energy gap increases with the quantum confinement energy at small nanoscales, as well as the activation energy due to the quantum confinement effect, but these electrical properties decrease with the quantum confinement energy at large nanoscales.
