The intrinsic photoconductivity of several samples of the alloy GaAsxSb1−x has been studied at 4.2 K in the presence of magnetic fields of up to 65 kG. Values for the band-gap, the reduced effective mass of the carriers, the energy of the longitudinal optical phonons across the alloy composition are deduced from the measurements.

AbstractTwo-electron transition occurs when the exciton bound to a neutral donor (DBE) recombines and leaves the donor in an excited state. The two-electron energy is therefore lower than that of the DBE peak by the difference in ground and excited state of the neutral donor. In a magnetic field the two-electron satellite splits into several components. These intra-donor excitations have been studied in homoepitaxial GaN up to magnetic fields reaching 23T. For Faraday (B‖c) configuration the two-electron transition splits mainly into 2s, 2p0, 2p+ and 2p- components. The total splitting between 2p+ and 2p- is equal to Landau energy. For Voigt (B???c) configuration in addition to transition to 2s, 2p0, 2p- and 2p+ there are additional lines which origin is discussed. It has been found that for two configurations of magnetic field the separation between 2p+ and 2p- is not exactly equal, what indicates the anisotropy of the electron effective mass. It has been found that m| = 0.205m0 and m??? = 0.225m0.

Room temperature measurements of longitudinal and transverse Nernst–Ettingshausen coefficients [Formula: see text] have been made on samples of GaxIn1–xAs alloys for a range of magnetic fields (B) up to 3.2 Wb/m2. Previous theoretical expressions for the values of these coefficients have been extended to the case of electrons in a single Kane band, and hence expressions for [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] obtained in terms of B, the bottom of the band effective mass m0*, and the scattering coefficient s. Fitting of these expressions to the experimental data thus has given values of m0* and s for each alloy sample. The values of m0* are found to be in good agreement with those obtained previously from plasma reflectance work, while the values of s indicate that over most of the alloy range polar optical scattering is predominant, but that in the range 0.4 < x < 0.7, alloy scattering may also have some contribution.

The aim of this work is to analyze the band-structure parameters of Mn x Cd y Hg 1- x - y Te (MMCT) alloys by means of Magnetophonon Resonance (MPR) and to compare that obtained for Zn x Cd y Hg 1- x - y Te (ZMCT). MPR was observed for two samples of Mn x Cd y Hg 1- x - y Te (MMCT) (I- x =0.095 and y =0.09, II-0.04 and y =0.19). The measurements of MPR were performed in pulsed magnetic fields at different temperatures ranging from 77 K to 200 K. The several wide maxima are clearly visible on the experimental curves corresponding to four series of peaks. These series are related to three kinds of phonons analogous to ZMCT. The system of MPR peaks in MMCT is shifted significantly to the higher magnetic fields in comparison with the ZMCT resonance curves of approximately the same content of Zn . The value of effective mass obtained by MPR experiment is of 66% greater than those calculated in the framework of three-band Kane model, in which the value of Eg, was extracted from the photoconductivity data.

The DC electrical transport in a quantum well (QW) with parabolic confinement potential [Formula: see text] (where m and ωz are the effective mass of electron and the confinement frequency in z direction, respectively) subjected to a crossed DC electric field and magnetic field, is studied theoretically. The scattering by optical phonons is taken into account at high temperatures and strong magnetic fields. We obtained the expression for nonlinear current density (NCD) involving external (electric and magnetic) fields and characteristic parameters of QW. The dependence of NCD on the DC electric field is complicated. The analytical result is computationally evaluated and graphically plotted for a specific parabolic QW of GaAs / AlGaAs . The numerical results show the appearance of maximum peaks satisfying the condition of intersubband magnetophonon resonance (MPR) effect in the presence of a DC electric field. Especially, we show that the effect can be applied in experiment to determine some physical parameters by using magnetic field, such as the numbers of Landau levels for which electrons transfer, the effective mass, the charge of electrons or the confinement frequency characterized for PQW.
