Chemical potential of the low-dimensional multisubband Fermi gas

In this paper, the chemical potential of two-dimensional (2D) and quasi-one-dimensional (Q1D) multisubband charged Fermi gases is evaluated. We start with a rather general formula for the thermodynamic potential of an ideal quantum statistical system with arbitrary occupation-number to calculate, as a particular case, the chemical potential of the multisubband 2D Fermi gas described by a quadratic energy spectrum. The chemical potential is also studied in the case of a low-dimensional Fermi gas in the presence of a quantizing magnetic field. The same approach is used to study the chemical potential of a multisubband Q1D Fermi gas. The influence of temperature is considered. We found interesting analytical results for special limits as well as numerical results that may be important for the description of both the thermodynamic and kinetic properties of Fermi systems in low dimensionality.
