Electrical transport through individual DNA molecules

A theoretical model is presented to describe electrical transport through individual DNA molecules. By contacting the proposed model with the experimentally measured data, a variety of valuable quantities are identified. The partially decoherent nature on the guanine-cytosine (GC) pairs of DNA is also elaborated in contrast to the completely incoherent hopping mechanism discussed in the context of charge transfer experiments.

Random telegraph noise in the photoluminescence of individual GaxIn1-xAs quantum dots in GaAs

We have investigated random telegraph noise in the photoluminescence from InGaAs quantum dots in GaAs. Dots switching among two and three levels have been measured. The experiments show that the switching InGaAs dots behave very similarly to switching InP dots in GaInP. but differently from the more commonly investigated colloidal dots. The switching is attributed to defects, and we show that the switching can be used as a monitor of the defect.

InAs/ln(0.52)Al(0.48)As quantum wire structure with the specific layer-ordering orientation on InP(001)

Quantum wires were formed in the 6-period InAs/In0.52Al0.48As structure on InP(0 0 1) grown by molecular beam epitaxy. The structure was characterized with transmission electron microscopy. It was found that the lateral periodic compositional modulation in the QWR array was in the [1 (1) over bar 0] direction and layer-ordered along the specific orientation deviating from the [0 0 1] growth direction by about 30 degrees. This deviating angle is consistent with the calculation of the distribution of elastic distortion around quantum wires in the structure using the finite element technique.

MOCVD生长Al_(0.48)Gao_(0.52)N/Al_(0.54)Ga_(0.36)N多量子阱的结构和光学特性

采用金属有机物化学气相淀积(MOCVD)技术,在蓝宝石衬底上生长了Al_(0.48)Gao_(0.52)N/Al_(0.54)Ga_(0.36)N多量子阱(MQWs)结构.通过双晶X射线衍射(DCXRD)、原子力显微镜(AFM)和阴极荧光(CL)等测试技术,分别对样品的结构和光学特性进行了表征.在DCXRD图谱中,可以观察到明显的MQWs衍射卫星峰,通过拟和,MQWs结构中阱和垒的厚度分别为2.1和9.4 nm,Al组分分别为0.48和0.54.在AFM表面形貌图上,可以观察到清晰的台阶流,表明MQWs获得了二维生长;与此同时,MQWs结构存在一些裂缝,主要原因为AlGaNMQWs结构和下层GaN层间存在很大的应力.CL测试表明,AlGaN MQWs结构的发光波长为295 nm,处于深紫外波段,同时观察到处于蓝光、绿光波段的缺陷发光.

In_(0.53)Ga_(0.47)As/In_(0.52)Al_(0.48)As量子阱中的正磁电阻效应

在低温强磁场条件下,对In_(0.53)Ga_(0.47)As/In_(0.52)Al_(0.48)As量子阱中的二维电子气进行了磁输运测试.在低磁场范围内观察到正磁电阻效应,在高磁场下这一正磁电阻趋于饱和,分析表明这一现象与二维电子气中的电子占据两个子带有关.在考虑了两个子带之间的散射效应后,通过分析低磁场下的正磁电阻,得到了每个子带电子的迁移率,结果表明第二子带电子的迁移率高于第一子带电子的迁移率.进一步分析表明,这主要是由两个子带之间的散射引起的.

两个子带占据的In_(0.53)Ga_(0.47)As/In_(0.52)Al_(0.48)As量子阱中填充因子的变化规律

研究了低温(1.5K)和强磁场(0-13T)条件下,InP基In_(0.53)Ga_(0.47)As/In_(0.52)A_(l0.48)As量子阱中电子占据两个子带时填充因子随磁场的变化规律.结果表明,在电子自旋分裂能远小于朗道能级展宽的情况下,如果两个子带分裂能是朗道分裂能的整数倍时,即⊿E_(21)=κ*ω_c(其中κ为整数),填充因子为偶数;当两个子带分裂能为朗道分裂能的半奇数倍时,即⊿E_(21)=(2κ+1*ω/2,填充因子出现奇数.

In_(0.53)Ga_(0.47)As/In_(0.52)Al_(0.48)As量子阱中双子带占据的二维电子气的输运特性

研究了不同沟道厚度的In_(0.53) Ga_(0.47)As/In_(0.52)Al_(0.48)As量子阱中双子带占据的二维电子气的输运特性.在考虑了两个子带电子之间的磁致子带间散射效应后,通过分析Shubnikov-de Haas振荡一阶微分的快速傅里叶变换结果,获得了每个子带电子的浓度、输运散射时间、量子散射时间以及子带之间的散射时间.结果表明,对于所研究的样品,第一子带电子受到的小角散射更强,这与第一子带电子受到了更强的电离杂质散射有关.

不同量子阱宽度的InP基In_(0.53)GaAs/In_(0.52)AlAs高电子迁移率晶体管材料二维电子气的性能研究

用Shubnikov-de Haas(SdH)振荡效应,研究了在1.4 K下不同量子阱宽度(10-35 nm)的InP基高电子迁移率晶体管材料的二维电子气特性.通过对纵向电阻SdH振荡的快速傅里叶变换分析,得到不同阱宽时量子阱中二维电子气各子带电子浓度和量子迁移率.研究发现,在Si掺杂浓度一定时,阱宽的改变对于量子阱中总的载流子浓度改变不大,但是随着阱宽的增加,阱中的电子从占据一个子带到占据两个子带,且第二子带上的载流子迁移率远大于第一子带迁移率.当量子阱宽度为20 nm时,处在第二子能级上的电子数与处在第一子能级上的电子数之比达到了最大值0.24.此时有最多的电子位于迁移率高的第二子能级,材料的迁移率也最大.此结果对于优化器件的设计有重要意义.
