摘要
We investigated the transport of a two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) in an In0.52Al0.48As/In0.7Ga0.3As heterostructure when exposed to light from infrared laser diodes (lambda = 0.78, 1.3 mu m) by means of both Shubnikov-de Haas and Hall-effect measurements. We observed negative photoconductivity due to a reduction in the number of electrons in the 2DEG when they were illuminated by photons at lambda = 1.3 mu m. We speculate that the negative photoconductivity originates from the diffusion and trapping of photo-induced hot electrons at deep impurity levels in the InAlAs barrier layer near the InAlAs/InGaAs interface.
