Abstract :
In this work we are going to exploit k.p perturbation theory for calculation of momentum matrix elements and energy eigenvalue of semiconductors in general, and calculate the Ec & Ev the energy on conduction band and valence band respectively. Finally, we formulate the energy spectrum energy for II-VI material using the relation between the reduce mass μ* and the unperturbed band gap Eg0.
