摘要
The thermal activation of accepters in wide-gap semiconductors can be very low due to large acceptor activation energies. It is shown that superlattice doping, i.e., the composition modulation of a uniformly doped ternary semiconductor, can enhance the acceptor activation by more than one order of magnitude.
