Field effect as a method for controlling the quality of i-InP-based heteronanostructures with two-dimensional electron gases

The field effect in i-InP-based heteronanostructures has been studied in InP and In_0.52Al_0.48As layers with an In _x Ga_1?x As quantum well with a high Hall electron mobility in the frequency range of (20?2) × 10⁶ Hz and temperature range of 77?C450 K. It is shown that mobility in the field effect depends on the location of Si ??-doped areas with respect to the quantum well and on the doping level. The ??-doping level and the configurations of nanostructures have been determined for the case in which the values of the electron mobility in the field and Hall effects are close to each other and correspond to high values of mobility in the quantum well.     

Microstructural and optical properties of strain compensated InxGa1−xAs/InyAl1−yAs multiple quantum wells

Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and photocurrent (PC) measurements were carried out to investigate the microstructural and excitonic transitions in In_0.52Ga_0.48As/In_0.55Al_0.45As multiple quantum wells (MQWs). TEM images showed that high-quality 11-period strain-compensated In_0.52Ga_0.48As/In_0.55Al_0.45As MQWs had high-quality heterointerfaces. Based on the TEM results, a possible crystal structure for the In_0.52Ga_0.48As/In_0.55Al_0.45As MQWs is presented, and their strains are compensated. The results for the PC data at 300 K for several applied electric fields showed that several excitonic transitions shifted to longer wavelengths as the applied electric field increased. These results indicate that the strain-compensated In_0.52Ga_0.48As/In_0.55Al_0.45As MQWs hold promise for electroabsorption modulator devices.

Nonparabolic tendency of electron effective mass estimated by confined states in In0.53Ga0.47As/In0.52Al0.48As multi-quantum-well structures

We observed that a series of peaks, which were clearly extracted from a photocurrent difference spectrum, corresponded to interband optical transitions of an In_0.53Ga_0.47As /In_0.52Al_0.48As multi-quantum wells structure. The nonparabolic tendency of the electron effective mass was suggested from eigenenergies of conduction subbands. The effective mass estimated in a direction normal to the InGaAs quantum well plane was heavier than the effective mass of the bulk band edge and was 0.07 m₀at the top of a quantum potential well.     

Manganese-related luminescence in GaInAs/AlInAs multiple quantum wells grown on InP by molecular beam epitaxy

Two Mn-related luminescence peaks have been observed in a series of nominally undoped Ga_0.47In_0.53As/Al_0.48In_0.52As multiple quantum wells (MQW) grown lattice-matched on InP substrates by molecular beam epitaxy. These two peaks correspond to on-center and on-edge impurity states, respectively. The origin of the Mn impurities is outdiffusion from the Fe-doped semiinsulating InP substrate into the epitaxial layer. The binding energy of Mn acceptors, determined to be 53±3 meV in bulk-like Ga_0.47In_0.53As, increases to 80±5 meV for the on-center Mn state in a 58 Å MQW. The strong well-width dependence of the binding energy is explained in terms of the unique behavior of the Mn impurity in III–V semiconductors. The Mn in Ga_0.47In_0.53As and Ga_0.47In_0.53As/Al_0.48In_0.52As MQWs behaves predominantly as a deep impurity.On leave from: A. F. Ioffe Physicotechnical Institute, Leningrad, USSR     

Influence of Nonequilibrium LO Phonons on High-frequency Performance of One-dimensional Hot Electrons in Quantum Wires of Polar Semiconductors

Small-signal ac transport of degenerate one-dimensional hot electrons in quantum wires of GaAs and In_0.53Ga_0.47As is studied for lattice temperatures of 77 K and 300 K. The carrier energy loss via polar optic phonons and momentum losses via polar optic phonons, acoustic phonons and ionized impurities are included in the calculations. Alloy disorder scattering in momentum loss is additionally incorporated for (In,Ga)As. The consideration of nonequilibrium optical phonons or hot phonons is found to enhance the 3dB cut-off frequency (f_3dB) considerably, where the ac mobility falls to 0.707 of its low frequency value. f_3dB is generally higher for (In,Ga)As quantum wire than for GaAs.     

Mobility enhancement in MBE-grown InxGa1−xAs/In0.52Al0.48As modulation-doped heterostructures

Pseudomorphic In_xGa_1−xAs/In_0.52Al_0.48As modulation-doped heterostructures were grown by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) on InP (100) substrates over a range of indium compositions fromx=0.53 to 0.75. Low temperature photoluminescence (PL) measurements show a prominent reduction in the InGaAs linewidth due to the quantum-size effect as the indium composition is increased from its lattice-matched value of 0.53. The lowest linewidth of 6.8 meV was achieved at an indium composition of 0.65, above which an increase in the linewidth was observed due to the overwhelming effects of interfacial strain. The Hall mobilities at 300 K and 77 K increase in correspondence to the PL linewidth reduction as the indium composition is increased. Although initial signs of mobility saturation can be seen at an indium composition of 0.65, the peak mobility at 77 K of 8.9×10⁴cm²V s⁻¹was achieved at an indium composition of 0.70. There is experimental evidence to indicate that the mobility enhancement at increasing indium composition is due to an effect of a reduction in the alloy scattering and in the effective mass of the carriers. It was found that the insertion of an additional In_0.53Ga_0.47As interface smoothing layer between the strained InGaAs channel and the In_0.52Al_0.48As spacer layer did not have a significant effect on the mobility enhancement in the heterostructures.     

Electronic parameters and electronic structures in modulation-doped highly strained InxGa1−xAs/InyAl1−yAs coupled double quantum wells

Electronic parameters of a two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) in modulation-doped highly strained In_xGa_1−xAs/In_yAl_1−yAs coupled double quantum wells were investigated by performing Shubnikov-de Haas (S-dH), Van der Pauw Hall-effect, and cyclotron resonance measurements. The S-dH measurements and the fast Fourier transformation results for the S-dH at 1.5 K indicated the electron occupation of two subbands in the quantum well. The electron effective masses of the 2DEG were determined from the cyclotron resonance measurements, and satisfied qualitatively the nonparabolicity effects in the quantum wells. The electronic subband structures were calculated by using a self-consistent method.     

Low temperature electron mobility in Ga0.5In0.5P/GaAs quantum well structures

We analyse the low temperature subband electron mobility in a Ga_0.5In_0.5P/GaAs quantum well structure where the side barriers are delta-doped with layers of Si. The electrons are transferred from both the sides into the well forming two dimensional electron gas (2DEG). We consider the interface roughness scattering in addition to ionised impurity scattering. The effect of screening of the scattering potentials by 2DEG on the electron mobility is analysed by changing well width. Although the ionized impurity scattering is a dominant mechanism, for small well width the interface roughness scattering happens to be appreciable. Our analysis can be utilized for low temperature device applications.

Effect of Miniband Dispersion on Inelastic Scattering of Superlattice Electrons by Acoustic Phonons

Within the framework of the Boltzmann equation, formulas for calculating the effective relaxation time and mobility of superlattice electrons are derived with allowance for inelastic scattering on acoustic phonons and dispersion of the miniband energy spectrum depending on the longitudinal wave vector. The dependences of longitudinal and transverse mobilities of the nondegenerate electronic gas of the GaAs/Al_0.36Ga_0.64As superlattice with the quantum well 5 nm wide on the potential barrier width and temperature are analyzed numerically. It is demonstrated that inelasticity of scattering and miniband dispersion significantly increase the electron mobility, and its temperature dependence becomes more pronounced at low temperatures.

Dependence of the interband transitions on the in mole fraction and the applied electric field in InxGa1−xAs/In0.52Al0.48As multiple quantum wells

Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and photocurrent (PC) measurements were carried out to investigate the microstructural properties and excitonic transitions in In_xGa_1−xAs/In_0.52Al_0.48As multiple quantum wells (MQWs) for x = 0.54, 0.57 and 0.60. TEM images showed that high-quality 11-period In_xGa_1−xAs/In_0.52Al_0.48As MQWs had high-quality heterointerfaces. The results for the PC spectra at 300 K showed that the peaks corresponding to the excitonic transitions from the ground state electronic sub-band to the ground state heavy-hole band (E₁-HH₁) and the ground state electronic sub-band to the ground state light-hole band (E₁-LH₁) became closer to each other with decreasing In mole fraction and that E₁-HH₁ and E₁-LH₁ excitonic peaks shifted to longer wavelength with increasing applied electric field. The calculated values of the E₁-HH₁ interband transition energies were in qualitative agreement with those obtained form the PC measurements with and without applied electric field. These results can be helpful in understanding potential applications of In_xGa_1−xAs/In_yAl_1−yAs MQWs dependent on In mole fraction and applied electric field in long-wavelength optoelectronic devices.     

Low temperature subband 2D electron mobilities in heavy delta- and modulation doped GaAs/GaAlAs heterostructures

We synthesised high-2D electron-density GaGs/GaAlAs heterostructures with different distance L_σ of Si delta-layer in GaAs from the heterojunction and uniform doped GaAlAs. The quantum Hall effect and Shubnikov-de Haas effect were measured for temperatures down to 0.4 K in magnetic fields up to 40 T. The enhanced 2D electron concentration achieved was 1.1^*10¹³ cm^?2 in six filled subbands. The Hall mobility depends on L_σ and has maximum for L_σ=600÷750Å. From the amplitudes of the SdH oscillations and Fourier transforms the subband mobilities and electron concentration in each subband have been extracted. According to calculations intersubband electron scattering appears to be important and reduces mobilities in subbands.     

Observation of confined states in anIn0.53Ga0.47As/In0.52Al0.48Asmulti-quantum wells structure by quantum confined Stark effects

Photocurrent spectra in an In_0.53Ga_0.47As /In_0.52Al_0.48As multi-quantum wells structure containing 9.4 nm wide wells were measured at room temperature in electric fields. The exciton peaks of ground-state transitions shifted fairly in 167 kV cm ^− 1as the quantum confined Stark effect. Stark shifts were calculated by using the Runge–Kutta method using the effective mass equation with our experimental band parameters. Our parameters are the hole effective masses and valence band offset derived from saturation of a highest eigen energy, electron effective mass depending on energies and the conduction band offset derived from observed quantum number. It was possible to sufficiently use our experimental band parameters for the calculation of the Stark shift in the electric field.
