The hole effective mass has a slightly different equation [ https://www.mail-archive.com/wien@zeus.theochem.tuwien.ac.at/msg11446.html ].  Whether that is the cause of your problem, I don't know.

That electron effective mass parabolic approximation example [ https://www.mail-archive.com/wien@zeus.theochem.tuwien.ac.at/msg16786.html ] is for a simplistic case.  Effective mass calculations can be substantially more complex [ https://ecee.colorado.edu/~bart/book/effmass.htm , https://nanohub.org/groups/ece656_f13/File:Notes_on_Effective_Masses.pdf ] where in a 3D structure there is the effective mass tensor [ http://folk.uio.no/ravi/FME2011/lectures/Lecture2-2-ravi_effectivemass.pdf , https://physics.bgu.ac.il/COURSES/Physics3A/2019A/LEC1/Lecture_7_Phys_3.pdf , https://s2.smu.edu/ee/smuphotonics/Gain/CoursePresentationFall03/Effective_Mass_Theory_July25-03.pdf ].

Dear Sir,

I am calculating effective mass of electron using the procedure as provided in https://www.mail-archive.com/wien@zeus.theochem.tuwien.ac.at/msg16786.html and I calculate electron effective mass. But when i follow the same procedure to calculate the hole effective mass the difference is very large with the references.

Is there any different procedure other then electron effective mass?
Thanks

Ajay Singh Verma
