摘要
We present variational calculations of the total energy of electrons in a two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) in a high electron mobility structure, within which a back-gate allows the electric fields on either side of the 2DEG to be controlled independently. In particular, we examine the phase diagram of 2D electron subband occupation as a function of the back-gate bias and the total 2D carrier density. We extend our results to incorporate an applied magnetic field. We relate the results to existing data and suggest novel experiments.
