Shubnikov-de Haas oscillations of two-dimensional electron gas in an InAsN/InGaAs single quantum well

摘要

We present the first investigation of Shubnikov-de Haas (SdH) oscillations of two-dimensional electron gas formed in an InAsN/InGaAs single quantum well (QW) grown on an InP substrate using gas source molecular beam epitaxy and a radio-frequency (rf) plasma nitrogen source. The photoluminescence (PL) peak energy of the InAsN/InGaAs QW decreases compared with that of InAs/InGaAs QW. This agrees with the bowing effect due to the incorporation of nitrogen atoms. The nitrogen content can be estimated to be 0.4/100 using the PL peak positions as well as x-ray diffraction.
