Advances in Semiconductor Superlattices, Quantum Wells and Heterostructures
Abstract In 1969, research on synthesized semiconductor superlattices was initiated with a proposal for a one-dimensional periodic structure consisting of alternating ultra-thin layers by Esaki and Tsu.1,2 Two types of superlattices: doping and compositional, were envisioned. The idea of the superlattice occurred to us while investigating the possible observation of resonant tunneling through double and multiple potential-barriers.3 In general, if characteristic dimensions such as superlattice periods and widths of potential wells in semiconductor nanostructures are reduced to less than the electron mean free path, the entire electron system will enter a quantum regime of reduced dimensionality with the presence of nearly-ideal hetero-interfaces. Our effort for the semiconductor superlattice4 is viewed as a search for novel phenomena in such a regime with engineered structures.
