Relaxation processes and mobility of electrons in a semiconductor quantum well with the modified Pöschl-teller confining potential

Relaxation processes and mobility of electrons in a semiconductor quantum well are studied. The modified Pöschl-Teller potential is used as a confining potential. Scattering rates due to impurity ions, acoustic and piezoacoustic phonons are calculated taking into account the screening of scattering potentials by charge carriers. It is shown that when degenerate electrons are scattered by acoustic phonons, the dependence of scattering rate on electron wave number ν_ac(k) is almost linear. At small k, the acoustic phonon piezoelectric scattering rate of degenerate electrons increases with k, and then it decreases slightly when k > 8 × 10⁷ m⁻¹. The ionized impurity scattering rate of degenerate electrons does not depend on temperature, is directly proportional to the electron density, and decreases with increasing k. Dependences of electron mobility on surface ion density and temperature are studied. It is shown that in the case of non-degenerate or slightly degenerate electron gas, a maximum appears in the temperature dependence of the mobility, and the screening effect is negligible. The screening significantly increases the mobility of electrons in the case of high degeneration. Obtained results are applied to GaAs-based quantum wells.     

Magnetotransport in modulation-doped In0.53Ga0.47As/In0.52Al0.48As heterojunctions: in-plane effective mass,quantum and transport mobilities of 2D electrons

Shubnikov–de Haas (SdH) and Hall effect measurements, performed in the temperature range between 3.3 and 20 K and at magnetic fields up to 2.3 T, have been used to investigate the electronic transport properties of lattice-matched In_0.53Ga_0.47As/In_0.52Al_0.48As heterojunctions. The spacer layer thickness (t_S) in modulation-doped samples was in the range between 0 and 400 Å. SdH oscillations indicate that two subbands are already occupied for all samples except for that witht_S =  400 Å. The carrier density in each subband, Fermi energy and subband separation have been determined from the periods of the SdH oscillations. The in-plane effective mass (m ^* ) and the quantum lifetime (τ_q) of 2D electrons in each subband have been obtained from the temperature and magnetic field dependences of the amplitude of SdH oscillations, respectively. The 2D carrier density (N₁) in the first subband decreases rapidly with increasing spacer thickness, while that (N₂) in the second subband, which is much smaller thanN₁ , decreases slightly with increasing spacer thickness from 0 to 200 Å. The in-plane effective mass of 2D electrons is similar to that of electrons in bulk In_0.53Ga_0.47As and show no dependence on spacer thickness. The quantum mobility of 2D electrons is essentially independent of the thickness of the spacer layer in the range between 0 and 200 Å. It is, however, markedly higher for the samples with a 400 Å thick spacer layer. The quantum mobility of 2D electrons is substantially smaller than the transport mobility which is obtained from the Hall effect measurements at low magnetic fields. The transport mobility of 2D electrons in the first subband is substantially higher than that of electrons in the second subband for all samples with double subband occupancy. The results obtained for transport-to-quantum lifetime ratios suggest that the scattering of electrons in the first subband is, on average, forward displaced in momentum space, while the electrons in the second subband undergo mainly large-angle scattering.     

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.

Temperature-dependent subband mobility characteristics in n-doped silicon junctionless nanowire transistor

We have investigated the temperature-dependent effective mobility characteristics in impurity band and conduction subbands of n-doped silicon junctionless nanowire transistors. It is found that the electron effective mobility of the first subband in 2-fold valleys is higher than that of the second subband in 4-fold valleys. There exists a maximum value for the effective subband mobilities at low temperatures, which is attributed to the increase of thermally activated electrons from the ionized donors in the impurity band. The experimental results indicate that the effective subband mobility is temperature-dependent on the electron interactions by thermal activation, impurity scattering, and intersubband scattering.     

Phonon-assisted normal incidence intersubband absorption in semiconductor quantum wells

In the presence of a normally incident mid-IR pulsed laser field, phonon-assisted photon absorption by both intrasubband and intersubband phonon scattering of conduction electrons in GaAs/AlGaAs quantum wells are predicted. The novel non-resonant and non-linear intersubband absorption is found by including the photon-induced phonon scattering process in a Boltzmann equation for phonon energies smaller than the energy separation between two electron subbands in the quantum well. The predicted phonon-assisted photon absorption by intersubband transitions of electrons from the first to the second subband is a unique feature in quantum-well systems and is expected to have a significant effect on the electron populations in both subbands.

Electron mobility in a modulation doped AlGaN/GaN quantum well

We consider a two dimensional electron gas confined to a modulation doped AlGaN/GaN quantum well and study the dependence of low field mobility on various parameters such as composition, well width, remote impurity and interface roughness as a function of temperature. GaN is assumed to be in the zincblende structure. Acoustic and optical phonon, ionized remote impurity and interface roughness scatterings are taken into account in mobility calculations. The scattering rates are calculated using the self-consistently calculated wave functions obtained from the numerical solution of Poisson and Schr?dinger equations. Also found from the self-consistent solutions are the potential profile at the junction, the energy levels in the well and electron concentrations in each level. Ensemble Monte Carlo method is used to find the drift velocities of the two dimensional electrons along the interface under an applied field. The mobility of two dimensional electrons is obtained from the drift velocity of electrons. It is found that while remote impurity scattering is very effective for small values of spacer layer and doping concentrations, increasing Al concentration reduces the mobility of electrons. The effect of surface roughness, on the other hand, on mobility is almost independent of well width. The results of our simulations are compatible with the existing experimental data.     

Two-dimensional electronic transport in In0.53Ga0.47As quantum Wells

Transport properties of the electrons itinerant two dimensionality in a square quantum well of In_0.53Ga_0.47As are studied in the framework of Fermi-Dirac statistics including the relevant scattering mechanisms. An iterative solution of the Boltzmann equation shows that the ohmic mobility is controlled by LO phonon scattering at room temperature, but below 130 K alloy scattering is predominant. The calculated mobilities with a suitable value of the alloy scattering potential agree with the experimental results over a range of lattice temperature. For lattice temperatures below 25 K where the carrier energy loss is governed by the deformation potential acoustic scattering, the warm electron coefficient is found to be negative. Its magnitude decreases with increasing lattice temperature and is greater for larger channel widths. Values of the small-signal AC mobility of hot electrons at a lattice temperature of 4.2 K are obtained for different sheet carrier densities and channel widths. Cut-off frequencies around 100 GHz are indicated.Dedicated to H.-J. Queisser on the occasion of his 60th birthday
