A method of dynamic deformations has been proposed as a useful informative tool in the characterization of transportation properties of a two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) in AlGaN/GaN heterostructures. It is found that the exposing of a sample to ultrasonic vibrations results in the persistent acousto-conductivity (PAC) which was observed up to room temperatures. The PAC behaves itself like persistent photoconductivity (PPC), and the carrier density in the 2DEG channel is primarily contributed by the transfer of electrons excited from traps (like DX centers) as a result of their reconstruction under the ultrasonic loading.

ABSTRACTLow energy ion damage effects have been investigated in GaAs-A1GaAs two dimensional electron gas (2DEG) materials. The effect of ion mass (He, Ar, Xe) and adsorbed C12 on the charge carrier density and mobility has been studied for ion bombarded 2DEG systems. The 2DEG mobility was significantly reduced by ion damage with the effect becoming more dramatic with smaller ion mass. For the same treatment, the two dimensional carrier density was relatively unaffected. The results of He ion exposure showed serious degradation of the 2DEG with moderate ion dose. Electrical measurements were performed to determine the conducting widths of narrow patterned wires. For the same structural widths (mask width) He defined wires showed smaller electrical widths than Ar milling in the presence of chlorine. Serious limitations to patterning small structures may be imposed using beam processes that include He or other light mass species.

We report simultaneous magnetotransport and surface acoustic-wave attenuation measurements performed at 1.25 K on a two-dimensional electron gas (2-DEG) GaAs–AlGaAs heterojunction sample. The carrier density was varied by means of the persistent photoconductivity effect. A comparison of the conductivity deduced from the two types of measurements is used to obtain information about the homogeneity of the 2-DEG sample. For this specific sample a simple model shows that there exists a 20% variation in the carrier density at some intermediate carrier densities, while prior to illumination and after saturation with light the spread in carrier density in the sample was only a few percent.

Finite Bandwidth

LaAlO3/SrTiO3 interfaces are a nice example of a two-dimensional electron gas, whose carrier density can be varied by top- and back-gating techniques. Due to the electron confinement near the interface, the two-dimensional band structure is split into sub-bands, and more than one sub-band can be filled when the carrier density increases. These interfaces also host superconductivity, and the interplay of two-dimensionality, multi-band character, with the possible occurrence of multi-gap superconductivity and disorder calls for a better understanding of finite-bandwidth effects on the superconducting critical temperature of heavily disordered multi-gap superconductors.
