The influence of exchange-correlation potential, quantum Bohm term, and degenerate pressure on the nature of solitary waves in a quantum semiconductor plasma is investigated. It is found that an amplitude and a width of the solitary waves change with variation of different parameters for different semiconductors. A deformed Korteweg-de Vries equation is obtained for propagation of nonlinear waves in a quantum semiconductor plasma, and the effects of different plasma parameters on the solution of the equation are also presented.
