摘要
Asymmetric (6.7-300)-nm-thick InAs quantum wells (QWs) confined between AlAsSb and CdMgSe barriers have been fabricated by molecular-beam epitaxy. A special procedure of the CdMgSe-on-InAs growth initiation, exploiting an ex situ S passivation of InAs and in situ deposition of an ultrathin ZnTe buffer layer, results in the fabrication of high quality structures with a density of extended defects below 10(6) cm(2). QW photoluminescence studies demonstrate a confinement effect and confirm the type I band alignment at the heterovalent InAs/CdMgSe interface mediated by the ZnTe interlayer. Observation of Shubnikov de Haas oscillations of magnetoresistance for an asymmetric 19-nm-thick InAs QW indicates an existence of the two-dimensional electron gas with the low-temperature sheet electron density of 1.3x10(12) cm(-2) and the mobility as high as similar to10 000 cm(2)/V s.
