Hi,

I'm trying Aestimo for calculating characteristics of my InP-based
devices.
The samples seem to work fine on my environment(Visual Studio with its
Python support).
However, when I introduced InGaAsP in my structure (single QW for
practice) and included valence band in the calculation,
the energy level diagram and eigenstates of electrons and holes went
crazy (the QW looked like type-II, energy came inside
the bandgap etc...). When I calculated with the same parameters, but
conduction band only, it looks nice.
As Aestimo doesn't support III-III'-V-V' alloys, I put material
properties of InGaAsP as a completely new material
in database.py, based on some papers.
Is there any other thing I have to take care?

Thanks in advance.
