Abstract :
This article investigates the correlation between the optical and transport properties of zinc oxide-zinc magnesium oxide double barrier system by investigating the localization of the energy levels in the quantum well. Effective mass approach is used to investigate this system. The degree of localization of the levels in the quantum well is also examined with respect to the width of the ZnMgO barriers. The energy bands for ZnO/Zn0.8Mg0.2O structure is also studied.
