yes because as i already told i have confused with electrons energy and momentum in quantum well.. here in this first...

the second set of slides also just like this pdf first page, where the eigenstate energy (En) is treated as kinetic energy of electrons in QW. I can understand that the lowest eigenstate (E1) starts from K1 as shown here . what i can't understand is that eigenstate energy (En) is electrons...

I googled a lot to find these topics from my old books but i didn't find exact. But i just managed few.. here in this slide from this http://faculty.uml.edu/cbaird/QCLPresentationApril2011.pdf shows that the bottom of discrete energy level in quantum well is Potential(P.E), while in this slide...

What i am asking is that in some books these discrete levels are treated as electrons kinetic energy while in some books they are electrons potential energy levels,which one is correct..? that is my confusion.

I am also so confused..What are these discrete energy levels in quantum dot and what type of energy(potential or kinetic energy) electrons will have if they lies in these discrete level..??

When electrons in bulk material they have 3 degree of freedom(moves freely in all 3 directions) and hence their kinetic energy is 3 dimensional. but whenever electrons confined to quantum dot it's all 3 degree of freedom vanishes and so is their kinetic energy also losses..?

What i am asking is electrons in bulk semiconductor have 3 degree of freedom so they have 3 dimensional kinetic energy component, but Whenever an electron from bulk material captured by a quantum well (where it has only 2 degree of freedom) that electron's 3rd dimensional kinetic energy...

Hello to All ! I have a question that Whenever an electron from bulk material trapped by a quantum well that electron's 3rd dimensional kinetic energy component vanishes, But where that goes, is it added to the other 2 dimensional kinetic energy components..?
