We present a model calculation, using the tight‐binding approach, of a one‐dimensional heterostructure consisting of regular alternation of two different halogen‐bridged transition‐metal compounds (MX compounds). Superlattice and multi‐quantum‐well properties can be detected depending on the well–barrier alternation sequence. We prove the possibility of developing new multi‐quantum‐well devices based upon MX compounds.
