Diagnostics of heterostructures of resonant-tunneling diodes during epitaxial growth. I. Estimation of the required accuracy of heterostructure growth

Based on the solution to the one-electron Schrödinger equation, current-voltage characteristics of the resonant-tunneling diode based on GaAs/AlAs are numerically simulated. It is shown that the layer thickness accuracy during epitaxial growth of the diode active region should be no worse than one m...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:Based on the solution to the one-electron Schrödinger equation, current-voltage characteristics of the resonant-tunneling diode based on GaAs/AlAs are numerically simulated. It is shown that the layer thickness accuracy during epitaxial growth of the diode active region should be no worse than one monolayer.
