Carrier Transport in Semiconductor Quantum Structures

Abstract

The objective is to study fundamental aspects of carrier (electron and hole) transport in interband cascade structures. These structures incorporate superlattices and layer sequences for carrier rectifying and blocking. The range of band alignments available in the InAs/GaSb/AlSb material system will enable interband cascade structures to be used as mid-infrared devices.
