    The nucleation structure for cracks in AlGaN epitaxial layers

    When an epitaxial layer is under tensile strain due to lattice mismatch, cracks are expected to form above a critical thickness. In the case of Group III nitrides grown on the sapphire (0001) plane, the epitax...

    Magnetotunnelling Spectroscopy to Measure the Electron and Hole ε(k) Dispersion Curves in the Quantum Well of Resonant Tunnelling Structures

    We investigate the effect of a large magnetic field, B, applied parallel to the plane of the barriers on the resonant I(V) currents of n- and p-type double barrier structures. The shifts in the electron resona...

    Resonant Tunnelling Devices in a Quantising Magnetic Field

    High magnetic fields, applied either parallel or perpendicular to the barriers, are extremely useful for investigating the electrical properties of resonant tunnelling structures [1–11]. By considering the cur...

    Magnetic Field Studies of Resonant and Non-resonant Tunnelling in n-(AlGa)As/GaAs Double Barrier Structures

    The electrical properties of a series of double barrier tunnelling devices with well widths between 5 and 60 nm are investigated. It is shown that the bistability effect in the current-voltage characteristics ...

    Resonant Magnetotransport in Short (0.25 – 9 μm) n+nn+ GaAs Structures

    Magnetophonon resonance in thin (0.25 – 9 μm) n+nn+ GaAs structures is used to study quasi-elastic inter-Landau level scattering which is induced in the high electric fields (up to 20 kV/cm) achievable in structu...
