Ambipolar Tunneling in Near-surface Quantum Wells
We study the photoluminescence from a near-surface quantum well in the regime of ambipolar tunneling to the surface states. Under steady-state excitation an electric field develops self-consistently due to the condition of equal tunneling currents for electrons and holes. The field induces a Stark shift of the photolumi-nescence signal which compares well with experimental data from near-surfac...
متن کاملSurface transport and quantum Hall effect in ambipolar black phosphorus double quantum wells
Quantum wells (QWs) constitute one of the most important classes of devices in the study of two-dimensional (2D) systems. In a double-layer QW, the additional "which-layer" degree of freedom gives rise to celebrated phenomena, such as Coulomb drag, Hall drag, and exciton condensation. We demonstrate facile formation of wide QWs in few-layer black phosphorus devices that host double layers of ch...
متن کاملGrowth and surface passivation of near-surface InGaAs quantum wells
The growth and surface passivation of near-surface InGaAs quantum wells (QWs) on GaAs (1 1 0) substrate have been investigated. Triangular shaped small islands, approximate areal density of 10 cm , are observed on metal organic vapor phase epitaxially grown GaAs single layer and InGaAs multi-quantum wells (MQWs) surfaces in a wide range of growth temperatures. By optimizing the growth condition...
متن کاملSingle-charge Tunneling in Ambipolar Silicon Quantum Dots
'What a transistor is to a regular computer, we try to make for the quantum computer.' Filipp Müller explains. 'A quantum computer works with quantum bits, the so-called qubits. A qubit, for instance the spin of an electron, can take on values between 0 and 1 and can only be described correctly by quantum mechanics. We try to create a nanostructure in which we can isolate an individual electron...
متن کاملMicroscopic model for sequential tunneling in semiconductor multiple quantum wells
We propose a self-consistent microscopic model of vertical sequential tunneling through multiple quantum wells. The model includes a detailed description of the contacts, uses the transfer Hamiltonian for expressions of the current and it treats the Coulomb interaction within a mean-field approximation. We analyze the current density through a double well and a superlattice and study the format...
