27. Parameters used are Vr = Vl =50 meV, a=40, lr = ll =50, lbx =25, lby =50, and z0 =4, lengths in nm. Also, dV/dz=-5 meV/nm, g0 =-51, ε=16.5, α=5 nm2, m* =0.014, and γ=160 meV/ nm3. Convergence is carefully monitored; the grid size is typically well over 20,000, and we use over ten one-particle basis sets.
