摘要
We report the first observation of a two-dimensional electron gas at a semiconductor-semiconductor (GaAs-AℓGaAs) interface. A novel, high-mobility, persistent-photoconductive effect allows one to vary the two-dimensional carrier concentration continuously from 1.1 × 1012 cm-2 to 1.6 × 1012 cm-2, as obtained by Shubnikov-deHaas measurements. Cyclotron resonance data establish an effective mass of 1.11 m{star, open}b, where m{star, open}b is the mass at the conduction-band edge of GaAs. Hall data and cyclotron resonance yield a mobility of μ ≈ 5000 cm2/Vsec. © 1979.
