A study of intersubband infrared absorption in modulation doped p-type \(\mathrm{Si} / \mathrm{SiGe}\) quantum wells is presented for SiGe wells with thicknesses between \(22 \AA\) and \(64 \AA\) and \(\mathrm{Ge}\) contents in the range from \(23 \%\) to \(58 \%\). The peak positions of the absorpt

✦ Synopsis
In standard electron spin resonance (ESR) spectroscopy on modulation-doped SiGe/Si/SiGe quantum wells, we observe a very sharp ESR due to the 2d electron gas and also cyclotron resonance (CR) of free carriers in the well. Both signals increase persistently after illumination and the 2d CR becomes sharper by one order of magnitude. We explain these effects together with the lack of Shubnikov-de Haas oscillations in terms of potential fluctuations due to the ionized donors which are partially neutralized and effectively screened by photogenerated carriers.

Optical and magneto-optical properties are studied for II-VI semiconductor multiple quantum wells (MQWs) doped with donors in the barriers to give electron concentrations of \(210^{10}\) to \(610^{11} \mathrm{~cm}^{-2}\) in the well layers. Following on from the recent identification of negatively c
We report the use of strain-balanced quantum-well structures to generate high carrier density, high mobility layers suitable for power field effect transistor (FET) applications. Standard designs of modulation-doped heterojunctions have a sheet carrier density limited to a maximum of ∼3 × 10 12 cm -
