Circular-cap carrier count in a square Brillouin zone

ID: circular-cap-carrier-count-in-a-square-brillouin-zone

For , each face cap has area . The total second-band electron area is ; the first-band hole area is . Multiplying either area by the spin degeneracy two and dividing by gives the carrier densities. This is an infinitesimal-potential count, not an exact finite-gap formula.
