    Notes: Photoconductivity, photo-Hall free carrier concentrations and mobilities were measured on molecular beam epitaxy-grown silicon planar-doped GaAs samples, with silicon concentrations between 1.4×1012 and 8.8×1013 cm−2, as functions of temperature. In all samples, the planar-doped region is placed 0.2 μm below a n+-doped cap layer at the surface. We perform a systematic investigation of the persistent as well as nonpersistent photoconductivity effects which are present in all samples. A phenomenological analysis shows the presence of two distinct conduction channels, one with n characteristics and the other with p characteristics. These channels can present either bulk or two-dimensional characteristics, depending on the light intensity and on the temperature. A model based on spatial separation between electrons and holes is proposed to account for the persistence of the photoconductivity effect. © 1995 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: We have carried out the time, temperature, and illumination dependencies of the current density in a semi-insulating GaAs sample grown at 300 °C under strong electric field. Standard ohmic behavior was observed at room temperature. A negative differential behavior as a function of the applied electric field was observed by lowering the temperature and increasing the photon flux, and this phenomenon was associated to the field-enhanced trapping effect. We have fit our data with a model for enhanced capture by a multiple-phonon emission capture process assisted by the applied electrical field. © 2000 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Using thermally stimulated current (TSC) spectroscopy we have identified the presence of several deep traps in low temperature grown (LTG) nonintentionally doped bulk molecular beam epitaxy (MBE)-GaAs and silicon planar-doped MBE-GaAs samples. The experiments of TSC spectroscopy were carried out on a LTG MBE-GaAs epilayer grown at 300 °C and the planar-doped layer with a nominal silicon concentration of 3.4×1012 cm−2. The LTG nonintentionally doped bulk MBE-GaAs sample shows three peaks in the TSC spectra but the planar-doped MBE-GaAs sample shows spectra similar to those of bulk samples grown by the liquid-encapsulated Czochralski and vertical gradient freeze methods. The main achievement is the experimental evidence that the potential well present in the planar-doped sample is effective in detecting the presence of different deep traps previously not seen in LTG bulk MBE-GaAs epilayers due to a shorter carrier lifetime (about 10−12 s) in the conduction band which occurs due to EL2-like deep traps recombination. This fact is evidenced by a strong hopping conduction in LTG bulk MBE-GaAs samples at temperatures lower than 300 K, but not in planar-doped MBE-GaAs samples because the two-dimensional electron gas has a higher mobility than lateral LTG bulk MBE-GaAs epilayers. © 1998 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: We have carried out dynamic low-temperature measurements of the current density for a semi-insulating GaAs sample grown at 300 °C. The standard photoquenching (PQ) effect was observed at low temperatures. We found that high electric fields inhibit the PQ effect and that the recovery of the PQ effect was made possible by simultaneous application of a high electric field and illuminating the sample with infrared light. © 1999 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Through photo-Hall measurements at temperatures below about 120 K, we have observed the presence of a deep donor defect, with characteristics similar to those of the EL2 center, in planar-doped GaAs samples grown by molecular beam epitaxy at 300 °C. We have shown that this EL2-like center can account for the remarkable photoreleasing of electrons and holes into the conduction and valence bands, respectively. The two different kinds of carriers accumulate in two spatially separated channels, which can secondarily account for the n- to p-type transition we have observed. © 1997 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Photo-Hall free electron concentrations were measured on molecular beam epitaxy grown silicon planar-doped GaAs samples, with silicon nominal concentration ranging from 1.4×1012 to 8.8×1013 cm−2, as function of temperature. We found conclusive results showing competition between positive photoconductivity and negative persistent photoconductivity effects. At temperatures below a critical Tc, the negative photoconductivity effect is dominant, while above Tc the positive effect dominates. We also found some evidence that the positive effect is related to spatial charge separation and that the negative effect is related to the DX center.
