4. The crystals which compose the heterostructure may have different periodic potentials giving rise to a layer-dependent effective mass as discussed, for example, by G. T. Einevoll, P. C. Hemmer, and J. Thomsen, Phys. Rev. B 42, 3485 (1990). Here, we will suppose to have a constant effective mass which is a reasonable assumption for GaAs-AlGaAs heterostructures.
