Sheet electron concentration at the heterointerface in Al 0.48 In 0.52 As/Ga 0.47 In 0.53 As modulation-doped structures

Sheet electron concentration at the heterointerface in Al0.48In0.52As/Ga0.47In0.53As modulation-doped structures has been calculated as a function of the spacer layer thickness, the doping concentration in Al0.48In0.52As and the lattice temperature. The calculated results were compared with those for Al0.3Ga0.7As/GaAs structures and also with the experimental data. It is shown that, compared with AlGaAs/GaAs about 1.5 times higher sheet electron concentration can be obtained in AlInAs/GaInAs at the same doping level, which is in good agreement with the experimental results.
