This chapter covers: the scattering potentia in a single heterostructure; intra-lowest-subband scattering rate; summing over qz; the form factor; lattice dispersion and regimes of frequency; LO-like and IF-like interactions including barrier modes; simple approximations; and the need for numerical evaluation.
Keywords: scattering rate, single heterostructure, numerical evaluation, form factor, barrier modes
