摘要
A new type of quasi-one-dimensional electron gas has been realized by using molecular beam epitaxy to grow a high mobility heterostructure on a (311)A GaAs substrate selectively etched to expose (100) facets. The electron gas formed on the (100) facets is confined in one lateral dimension by the p-n junctions formed with the adjacent two-dimensional hole gases on (311)A, thereby forming a p-n-p structure. Far-infrared cyclotron resonance spectra demonstrate the dimensionality of such structures and yield typical lateral confinement energies of 22.3 cm(-1) and electronic widths of similar to 900 nm. These estimates are supported by cathodoluminescence data. (C) 1996 American Institute of Physics.
