Abstract

We show how fabricated semiconductor heterostructures enable quantum particles to exhibit resilience to curved space, achieved through a suitable position-dependent mass distribution within the semiconductor. Following the proposed approach, we show that the first-order approximation of curved space requires a position-dependent mass distribution that is common for semiconductor heterostructures. For more complex structures of curved space, one has to consider a more exotic fabricated semiconductor.
