ABSTRACT:
A semiconductor device comprises stacked first through fifth semiconductor layers. The semiconductor device has an energy level condition of .vertline.Ec.sub.3 -Ec.sub.1 .vertline..apprxeq..vertline.Ev.sub.3 -Ev.sub.5 .vertline., where Ec.sub.3 is a resonant energy level of electrons in a conduction band of the third layer and Ev.sub.3 is a resonant energy level of holes in a valence band thereof, and Ec.sub.1 is an energy level of a conduction band of the first layer and Ev.sub.5 is an energy level of a valence band of the fifth layer.
