摘要
It is shown that if the gate depletion region of a MESFET is maintained with a constant width, channel current optoelectronic modulation spectroscopy reveals a spectrum of responses arising predominantly from charge variations in the depletion region at the interface between the active layer and the substrate. Optically induced charge variations as small as 2 x 10(9) electrons/cm(2)/eV have been detected. A refinement of the basic method is described which should allow the responses of electron states in a region of selected depth within the active layer states to be seen. The method will be of particular value in observing states that have a role in back-gating.
