dc.descriptionA doping series of AlAs (001) quantum wells with Si delta-modulation doping on both sides reveals different dark and post-illumination saturation densities, as well as temperature dependent photoconductivity. The lower dark two-dimensional electron density saturation is explained assuming deep binding energy of Delta_DK = 65.2 meV for Si-donors in the dark. Persistent photoconductivity (PPC) is observed upon illumination, with higher saturation density indicating shallow post-illumination donor binding energy. The photoconductivity is thermally activated, with 4 K illumination requiring post-illumination annealing to T = 30 K to saturate the PPC. Dark and post-illumination doping efficiencies are reported.
dc.descriptionThe values of binding energy changed from previous versions because of a better understanding for the dielectric permittivity. Also, the Gamma - X donor states are better explained
