A method of evaluating interface states for coupled superlattices has been developed. Explicit solutions for these states have been obtained within the framework of the Kronig–Penney model for the case of two semiconductor superlattices coupled by a tunnel barrier. The interface states are shown to be largely dependent on the coupling strength if the constituent superlattices have identical structure parameters, while insensitive to the tunnel barrier thickness if their structure parameters differ. In the latter case, electrons behave as if the system were composed of two decoupled semi‐infinite superlattices.
