Carrier confinement refers to the restriction of the movement of charge carriers (such as electrons or holes) within a specific region of a material. This confinement is typically achieved through the use of barriers or potential wells, which trap the carriers in a specific area, influencing their behavior and interactions within a device or structure. This phenomenon is often utilized in semiconductor devices like quantum wells, dots, and wires to control and manipulate the flow of charge carriers for various applications.
