Mobility asymmetry in InGaAs/InAlAs heterostructures with InAs quantum wires.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Strong asymmetry of electron mobility in InGaAs/InAlAs heterostructures (lattice matched to InP) with the presence of InAs quantum wires was observed. Self-assembled InAs quantum wires, embedded in an InGaAs matrix close to the hetero-interface, has a strong effect in electron conduction in the interface channel. The low temperature mobility for electrons moving parallel to the quantum wires is much higher than that of electrons moving perpendicular to the wires. The asymmetry in mobility is attributed to the difference in scattering cross section of the quantum wires in these two directions.

Effect of substrate misorientation on the InAs/ InAlAs/ InP nanostructure morphology and lateral composition modulation in the InAlAs matrix
The authors report the self-organized growth of InAs/ InAlAs quantum wires on nominal 001 InP substrate and 001 InP substrates misoriented by 2°, 4°, and 8° towards both −110 and 110 . The influence of substrate misorientation on the structural and optical properties of these InAs/ InAlAs quantum wires is studied by transmission electron microscopy and photoluminescence measurements. Compared w...

High electron mobility transistors with InAs channels and sub 0.1m metal gates, have demonstrated a 100% improvement in low-power, high-speed figure of merits over conventional InAlAs/InGaAs lattice-matched HEMTs and MHEMTs. AlSb/InAs MHEMTs exhibit transconductances as high as 1.3 S/mm at drain biases as low as 0.3 V, while maintaining fT and fmax results greater than 220 GHz and 270 GHz, resp...
متن کاملStructure and composition profile of InAs/GaAs quantum dots capped by an InGaAs and InAlAs combination layer.
Cross-sectional transmission electron microscopy (X-TEM) and scan-TEM are performed to study how the structural properties of InAs/GaAs quantum dots (QDs) are affected when capped by an InGaAs and InAlAs combination layer (CBL), which currently is one of the most promising active regions for a 1.3 microm QD laser. GaAs capping causes leveling of the QDs, which is suppressed by the introduction ...
متن کاملFrom weak to strong localization in a ferromagnetic high mobility 2DHG
Manganese modulation-doped two-dimensional hole systems confined in strained InAs/InGaAs/InAlAs heterostructures were investigated by low-temperature magnetotransport experiments. The study demonstrates quantized transport phenomena in the high field region, weak anti-localization in the low-field region and ferromagnetic ordering in the separated and insulating manganese-doped layer. A signifi...
متن کاملResonant phonon-assisted depopulation in type-I and type-II intersubband laser heterostructures
We show that LO phonon-assisted interband tunneling in type-II intersubband laser heterostructures is more efficient for the fast depopulation of the lower lasing states than the corresponding intersubband process in type-I double quantum wells (DQW). The main peak of the electron-phonon resonance in type-II DQW corresponds to electron transitions from the lowest electron-like subband to the to...
