    摘要: A semiconductor structure that provides both N-type and P-type doping from a single dopant source is provided. A first doping region (13) comprising a first material composition includes holes and electrons in a doping energy level (E.sub.D)- A first undoped spacer region (12) comprising the first material composition covers the doping region (13). An undoped channel (11,14) comprising a second material composition covers the first spacer region (12) and a second undoped spacer region (12) comprising the first material composition covers the undoped channel (11,14). The first material composition has a wider bandgap than the second material composition and the doping energy level (E.sub.D) is selected to provide electrons to the undoped channel (11,14) when the second material composition has a conduction band minimum less than the doping energy level (E.sub.D) and to provide holes to the first undoped channel (11,14) when the second material composition has a valence band maximum greater than the doping energy level (E.sub.D).

    摘要: A resonant tunneling diode having a quantum well sandwiched between first and second tunnel barrier layers and the quantum well and tunnel barrier layers sandwiched between an injection layer and a collector layer. The improvement includes a relatively thin layer of semiconductor material sandwiched between either the first tunnel barrier layer and the injection layer or the first tunnel barrier layer and the quantum well. The thin semiconductor layer has a valence band with an energy level lower than the valence band of the first tunnel barrier layer so as to prevent minority carriers from travelling toward the injection layer.

    摘要: A high transconductance HFET (21) utilizes nonalloy semiconductor materials (26) to form a strained channel layer (26) that has a deep quantum well (38). The materials utilized for layers adjacent to the channel layer (26) apply strain to the channel layer (26) and create an excess of high mobility carriers in the channel layer (26). The materials also form a deep quantum well (38) that confines the high mobility carriers to the channel (26). The high mobility carriers and the high confinement provide an HFET (21) that has high transconductance, high frequency response, and sharp pinch-off characteristics.
