A systematic study of interband tunneling between states of one, two, and three dimensions (1D, 2D, 3D) is presented based on the theory of the Esaki tunnel diode, modified to take interdimensional tunneling into account. I‐V characteristics are given for each of the nine possible combinations. Three systems are dealt with in greater depth: 2D‐3D tunneling, where a comparison with experimental data is made, 2D‐2D tunneling, where improvements over the conventional tunnel diode characteristic are seen, and 2D‐1D tunneling where the prospect of a tristable device is discussed.
