英文摘要 | we demonstrate that a p-n junction created electrically in hgte quantum wells with inverted band structure exhibits interesting intraband and interband tunneling processes. we find a perfect intraband transmission for electrons injected perpendicularly to the interface of the p-n junction. the opacity and transparency of electrons through the p-n junction can be tuned by changing the incidence angle, the fermi energy and the strength of the rashba spin-orbit interaction (rsoi). the occurrence of a conductance plateau due to the formation of topological edge states in a quasi-one-dimensional (q1d) p-n junction can be switched on and off by tuning the gate voltage. the spin orientation can be substantially rotated when the samples exhibit a moderately strong rsoi.; We demonstrate that a p-n junction created electrically in HgTe quantum wells with inverted band structure exhibits interesting intraband and interband tunneling processes. We find a perfect intraband transmission for electrons injected perpendicularly to the interface of the p-n junction. The opacity and transparency of electrons through the p-n junction can be tuned by changing the incidence angle, the Fermi energy and the strength of the Rashba spin-orbit interaction (RSOI). The occurrence of a conductance plateau due to the formation of topological edge states in a quasi-one-dimensional (Q1D) p-n junction can be switched on and off by tuning the gate voltage. The spin orientation can be substantially rotated when the samples exhibit a moderately strong RSOI.; submitted by 阎军 (yanj@red.semi.ac.cn) on 2010-09-20t08:22:14z no. of bitstreams: 1 quantum tunneling through planar p-n junctions in hgte quantum wells.pdf: 1037651 bytes, checksum: f930da254fdc7d89987277862b3ea397 (md5); approved for entry into archive by 阎军(yanj@red.semi.ac.cn) on 2010-09-20t08:28:24z (gmt) no. of bitstreams: 1 quantum tunneling through planar p-n junctions in hgte quantum wells.pdf: 1037651 bytes, checksum: f930da254fdc7d89987277862b3ea397 (md5); made available in dspace on 2010-09-20t08:28:25z (gmt). no. of bitstreams: 1 quantum tunneling through planar p-n junctions in hgte quantum wells.pdf: 1037651 bytes, checksum: f930da254fdc7d89987277862b3ea397 (md5) previous issue date: 2010; 国际 |
