Resonant Tunneling in Double Superlattice Barrier Heterostructures
We have invest igated resonant tunnel ing in double barr ier heterostructures in which the tunnel barr iers have been replaced by short period superlattices, and have shown for the first t ime quantum well confinement in a s ingle quantum well bounded by superlattices. These results also demonstrate the first u t i l iza t ion of shor t period b ina ry super la t t ices as effective t unne l ba...
متن کاملAdmittance of a one-dimensional double-barrier resonant tunneling nanostructure
We study the dynamic response of a one-dimensional double-barrier nanostructure to an ac bias. Combining the Schrödinger equation, Poisson equation and the scattering theory, we calculate the internal potential, charge density, and the ac conductance as well. The results show that the charge distribution is antisymmetric with respect to the center of the double barrier, and depends crucially on...
متن کاملCharge Distribution and Capacitance of Double Barrier Resonant Tunneling Diodes
Charge and potential profiles are self-consistently calculated in double-barrier heterostmctures to derive the capacitance of resonant tunnelling devices. We show that the dipole charge integrated over the accumulation or the depletion side of the device is the result of a complex arrangement of the mobile charge dragged and drifted when a bias is applied. Excellent agreement is found with capa...
متن کاملTransmission zero engineering in lateral double-barrier resonant tunneling devices
Transmission zero engineering in lateral double-barrier resonant tunneling devices is investigated. We show that, by inserting a resonant cavity in the quantum well region of a lateral double-barrier resonant tunneling structure and engineering the placement of transmission zero-pole pairs, the current peak-to-valley ratio of the device can be drastically improved at low temperature. An advanta...
متن کاملRelativistic Resonant Tunneling Lifetime for Double Barrier System
A relativistic study on lifetime of resonant tunneling states in the case of the double barrier system consisting of rectangular potential barriers has been studied. This study reveals the fact that as compared to the non-relativistic resonant tunneling states the relativistic resonant states occur in the lower energies but they are having shorter lifetime..
