    Epitaxial c-GaAs/h-GaN Heterostructures

    GaAs/GaN heterostructures were grown by molecular-beam epitaxy using GaN/supphire (0001) templates. In spite of a ~20% lattice mismatch, epitaxial growth was realized, so that the GaAs films showed good adhesi...

    Tailoring of Spin-Dependent Excitonic Interaction in Quantum Wells by an Electric Field

    We have studied the dynamics of a spin-polarised excitonic gas under the influence of an external electric field using time-resolved photoluminescence spectroscopy. This extends our previous investigations of ...

    Resonant Magnetotunneling in Type II Heterostructures

    We review the experimental effects of a magnetic field on the current-voltage characteristics of type II resonant-tunneling structures, mainly GaSb-AlSb-InAs-AlSb-GaSb. Their behavior under field, found to be ...

    Physics of Resonant Tunneling in Semiconductors

    The concept of tunneling through a potential barrier lies at the core of quantum mechanics, and its experimental observation is a manifestation of the wave-like behavior of matter. Since the early days of quan...

    Low-Temperature Magnetotransport in InAs-GaSb Quantum Wells

    We report measurements of the magneto and Hall resistance in GaSb-InAs-GaSb heterostructures at magnetic fields up to 28T and temperatures as low as 0.005K. In addition to the quantized Hall effect, extraordin...

    Fractional Hall Quantization of Two-Dimensional Holes in Gaas-GaAlAs Heterostructures

    The quantum Hall effect in two-dimensional electron systems has been reported in a number of heterostructures,1–4 in which the Hall resistance, ρxy =h/νe2, shows plateaus at integral values of ν and the magneto-r...

    Resonant Raman Scattering in GaSb-AlSb Superlattices

    The electronic properties of GaSb-AlSb superlattices (SL) have been recently analyzed by different experimental techniques showing unambiguously the formation of electronic subbands at the Γ-point 1-2. To our kno...

    Electric Field-Induced Decrease of Excition Lifetimes in GaAs Quantum Wells

    Previously[1], the c.w. photoluminescence (PL) at helium temperatures for excitons confined in quantum wells has been seen to decrease sharply (i.e. is quenched) when an electric field is applied perpendicular to...

    Persistent photo-conductance and photoquenching of selectively doped Al0.3Ga0.7As GaAs/heterojunctions

    The dependence on photon energy of the persistent photoconductivity (PPC) in selectively doped high mobility Al0.3Ga0.7As—GaAs heterostructures has been measured at temperatures below 80 K. A decrease in conducti...
