Abstract

A determination of the InAs/GaAs band-offset energy is presented. Electronic-transport analysis, based on capacitance-voltage and deep-level transient spectroscopy techniques, demonstrates high crystalline quality of our sample and yields a band-offset estimate of 0.69 eV, corresponding to a band-offset ratio of 70÷30. The present results agree well with reported theoretical values and allow the accurate modeling of electronic states in GaAs/AlGaAs heterostructures containing InAs ultrathin layers.
