β¦ Synopsis
Exact and general results on the electronic states in one-dimensional crystals bounded at Ο and Ο + L, where L = Na, N is a positive integer, and a is the potential period, are presented. Corresponding to each energy band of the Bloch wave, there are N -1 states in the finite crystal whose energies are dependent on L but not on Ο and map the energy band exactly. There is always one and only one electronic state corresponding to each band gap of the Bloch wave, whose energy is dependent on Ο but not on L. This state is either a constant-energy confined band-edge state or a surface state in the band gap.

We present a model for alloys of compound semiconductors by introducing a one-dimensional binary random system where impurities are placed in one sublattice while host atoms lie on the other sublattice. The source of disorder is the stochastic fluctuation of the impurity energy from site to site. Al
