Density of states Number of states per unit energy ( ) depends on the dimension. If our crystal has a finite size the set of −vectors is finite (though enormous!).
The density of states function describes the number of states that are available in a system and is essential for determining the carrier concentrations and energy distributions of carriers within a semiconductor.
We can use this idea of a set of states in a confined space ( 1D well region) to derive the number of states in a given volume (volume of our crystal). Consider the surfaces of a volume of semiconductor to be infinite potential barriers (i.e.
