The first four impurity energy levels and binding energy of the ground state are more easily calculated than with the variation method. The calculation results indicate that impurity energy levels decrease with the increase of the well width and decrease quickly when the well width is small. The binding energy of the ground state increases until it reaches a maximum value, and then decreases as the well width increases. The results are meaningful and can be widely applied in the design of various optoelectronie devices.展开更多

This has been due in part to the member countries＇ inadequate electrical power supply system, as well as load growth in areas which were not adequately planned for. This has induced the formation of organizations such as SADC （Southern African Development Community） and SAPP （Southern African Power Pool） that have the common goal of achieving development and economic growth in the region which comprises of 15 member countries. This paper presents results from a security analysis of the region＇s electric power supply system using a baseline level of performance. This was carried out by performing a steady-state contingency analysis on a SADC power network model subject to the N-1 criteria which expresses the ability of the power network to experience a contingency without causing an overload or failure in any other part of the network. Simulations were carried out using DigSilent.展开更多
