    Notes: A self-consistent calculation of the electron density and conduction-band edge is presented. The time-independent Schrödinger and Poisson equations are solved simultaneously under a high applied bias for structures with thick, lightly doped spacer layers. It is shown that strongly localized states occur in the well and accumulation regions. These states are capable of trapping a substantial amount of charge, which in turn can drastically change the shape of the band edge, and therefore need to be included in studies of the resonant tunneling problem in which the Coulomb interaction must be accounted for.

    Characterization of AlAs/GaAs superlattice barriers using electrical barrier height analysis (1988)

    Notes: Electrical barrier height measurements on n+-GaAs–insulator–n-GaAs structures with short-period AlAs/GaAs superlattices forming the insulator show the effective conduction-band discontinuity (ΔEC) of a superlattice barrier (SLB) to be defined by the lowest superlattice energy state. Five structures with different AlAs and GaAs SLB layer thicknesses are investigated. A SLB with GaAs layers greater than 10 monolayers is found to have a ΔEC defined by Γ-valley states in the GaAs layers, while a SLB with GaAs and AlAs layers less than 10 monolayers and with thicker AlAs layers than GaAs layers is found to have a ΔEC defined by X-valley states in the AlAs layers. The SLB with GaAs and AlAs layers less than 10 monolayers and thicker GaAs layers than AlAs layers behaves as a random alloy. Negative differential resistance is observed in the current-voltage characteristic of the sample whose barrier height is defined by Γ-valley states in the GaAs layers.

    Parametric study of AlAs/GaAs superlattice double-barrier diodes (1988)
    Woodbury, NY : American Institute of Physics (AIP)

    Topics: Physics
    Notes: Quantum well diodes with barriers formed by thin, short-period binary AlAs/GaAs superlattices were fabricated and found to have very high peak-to-valley current ratios. The effects of varying the AlAs and GaAs layers in the barriers are studied. The peak current density is found to decrease by orders of magnitude for monolayer increases in the AlAs layer thicknesses. Tunneling current peaks due to both resonance levels in the quantum well and resonance levels in the superlattice barriers are observed.

    AlGaAs/GaAs double barrier diodes with high peak-to-valley current ratio (1987)

    Notes: We report the largest peak-to-valley current (PVC) ratios to date from AlGaAs/GaAs double barrier (either alloy barrier or superlattice barrier) diodes. PVC ratios as high as 3.6 and 21.7 were obtained from an AlAs/GaAs superlattice barrier structure at 300 and 77 K, respectively. In an alloy barrier structure with x=0.42 (x=0.3), PVC ratios of 3.9 (2.2) and 14.3 (7.0) were observed at 300 and 77 K, respectively. We attribute these excellent results to a "two-step'' spacer layer incorporated in the devices studied which facilitated the growth of high material quality.
