Suppression of the singularly localized states in dimer quasiperiodic Fibonacci superlattices

Using the transfer-matrix technique, we have numerically investigated the effect of introducing the dimer on the nature of the states across Dimer Fibonacci semiconductor superlattices on the miniband structure of the GaAs/AlxGa1−xAs superlattices. By the introduction of the dimer model, the transmission spectra reveal the appearance of a miniband structure with a concomitant disappearance of the singularly localized states. This behavior is due to the interaction between the states of the dimer wells inside the potential and, therefore, the system is seen by the particle as two overlapped ordered structures.
