Research Abstract |
Roles of Si layr at GaAs/AlAs structures have been studied by x-ray photoemission spectroscopy(XPS) and self-consistent tight-binding calculations. It is found that one has to precisely control the Si-occupying sites to from an artificial interface dipole to control heterojunction band offsets. However, under the present experimental condition, inserted Siatoms distribute over a few atomic layrs and mainly act as donor impurities, which introduce only a band bending. Alternatively, we proposed to combine two closely spaced delta-doping layrs to vary the band offsets. Hall measurements show that a growth temperature varies a conduction type of(311)A-oriented GaAs delta-doped with only Si as a dopant. The effective band offset is varied by -0.5eV at a GaAs/AlAs heterostructure with p-and n-type Si doping sheets with a narrow spacing of -5 nm. This experiment shows that by controlling atomic sites of inserted Si, we can introduce an artificial interface dipole to realize a control of heterojunction band offsets.
