摘要
Electrical transport and traps in vertical SiGe/Si QW structures of low background doping level are studied in the presented report. Temperature activation of holes from the quantum well was found to determine the vertical current through Si/SiGe/Si structures at T > 160 K. At lower temperatures (T < 130 K), the current mechanism is attributed to a thermally activated tunneling of holes from quantum well. Deep traps are observed in the Si/SiGe/Si structures in high concentration (10(11) - 10(12) cm(-2)). Traps are most likely assistance in the current in the vertical Si/SiGe/Si structures as recombination centers near the QW.
