Actually, the simulation program mainly uses the density of state effective mass. The different direction's effective mass will be put together as

For conduction band:
  m_{dos}^{*} = (N_{valley})^{2/3} ( m_x m_y m_z)^{1/3} 
For the valence band 
   m_{HH, dos}^{*} = ( m_{hh,x} m_{hh,y} m_{hh,z})^{1/3}  
   m_{LH, dos}^{*} = ( m_{lh,x} m_{lh,y} m_{lh,z})^{1/3}  
   m_{p, dos}^{*} = ( m_{hh,dos}^{3/2}+ m_{hh,dos}^{3/2} ) ^{2/3} 

For the Schrodinger solver, it will use m_z to calculate the quantum confinement effects. The equation will solve

 {- \nabla \frac{1}{m_{z}} \nabla + V } \psi = E \psi 

For the n2d calculation, the density of state effective mass in the 2D structures is

   m_{2d,dos}^{*} = ( m_{x} m_{y} ) ^{1/2} 
   N_{DOS}(E) = \frac{m_{2d,dos}^{*}}{\pi\hbar^{2}}

For structures like Si, it may have some problems when the Schrodinger solver is used. Since Si has six valleys with effective masses in different directions (m_{l}=0.98 m_{0}, m_{l}=0.19 m_{0}, if we do not solve the Schrodinger equations, we can simply use m_e =1.08 m0 in the $1Dparameter.

   N_{DOS}(E) = \frac{m_{2d,dos}^{*}}{\pi\hbar^{2}}

For unconfined conditions, it will set the mass of the electron to be

   m_{dos}^{*} = \left(  (m_x m_y m_z)^{1/3})^{3/2} \times 2 +  (m_x m_y m_z)^{1/3})^{3/2}  \times 4  \right)^{2/3} 

For the confined conditions, it will

   m_{2d,dos,1}^{*} = ( m_{x} m_{y} ) ^{1/2} (N)^{1/2}= 0.19 * \sqrt{2} * m_{0} 
   m_{2d,dos,2}^{*} = ( m_{x} m_{y} ) ^{1/2} (N)^{1/2}= (0.19 * 0.98)^{1/2} \sqrt{4} * m_{0} 

For the In0.5Ga0.5P material, which has a 2nd valley (X) close to Gamma valley. In addition, the QB is usually dominated by X valley, which is an indirect bandgap. To solve Schrodinger equations, it is better to solve \Gamma valley and X separately. For Example, In0.5Ga0.5P is the direct bandgap X valley is above the \Gamma valley around 0.2eV, AlInP is the indirect bandgap, where X valley is below \Gamma valley about 0.4eV. Then we can use type 2 and set the first Ec as \Gamma valley and the 2nd Ec as X valley. Then
