Abstract

Calculations are made of the electron density distribution profiles in a layer of two-dimensional electron gas in a semiconducting heterostructure when reference and reverse potential biases are applied simultaneously to neighboring stripes of a periodic gate electrode. It is shown that for the structure parameters used experimentally the density distribution profile differs appreciably from rectangular and from sinusoidal.
