\section{GaN Bandstructure}
Sze simplifies the problem by using a parabola with curvature set by the effective mass for the dispersion, but one really should use the material-appropriate imaginary bandstructure in the gap, as shown in \ref{fig:imagBS}. In order have a usable form for the bandstructure, I've taken the 4x4 $k\cdot p$ Hamiltonian from \cite{Rinke_2008}, and specified it to the $\hat{z}$ direction, which removes most of the off-diagonal matrix elements. In fact, along the $z$-axis, the Hamiltonian can be reduced to an effective two-band model (similar to but more general than
(Kane_1960). \cite{Kane_1960}.
