We examine the phase and the period of the radiation-induced oscillatory-magnetoresistance in GaAs/AlGaAs devices utilizing in-situ magnetic field calibration by Electron Spin Resonance of DiPhenyl-Picryl-Hydrazal. The results confirm a $f$-independent 1/4 cycle phase shift with respect to the $hf = jhbaromega_{c}$ condition for $j geq 1$, and they also suggest a small ($approx$ 2%) reduction in the effective mass ratio, $m^{*}/m$, with respect to the standard value for GaAs/AlGaAs devices.

We have studied the origin of switching (telegraph) noise at low temperature in lateral quantum structures defined electrostatically in GaAs/AlGaAs heterostructures by surface gates. The noise was measured by monitoring the conductance fluctuations a
round $e^2/h$ on the first step of a quantum point contact at around 1.2 K. Cooling with a positive bias on the gates dramatically reduces this noise, while an asymmetric bias exacerbates it. We propose a model in which the noise originates from a leakage current of electrons that tunnel through the Schottky barrier under the gate into the doped layer. The key to reducing noise is to keep this barrier opaque under experimental conditions. Bias cooling reduces the density of ionized donors, which builds in an effective negative gate voltage. A smaller negative bias is therefore needed to reach the desired operating point. This suppresses tunnelling from the gate and hence the noise. The reduction in the density of ionized donors also strengthens the barrier to tunneling at a given applied voltage. Support for the model comes from our direct observation of the leakage current into a closed quantum dot, around $10^{-20} mathrm{A}$ for this device. The current was detected by a neighboring quantum point contact, which showed monotonic steps in time associated with the tunneling of single electrons into the dot. If asymmetric gate voltages are applied, our model suggests that the noise will increase as a consequence of the more negative gate voltage applied to one of the gates to maintain the same device conductance. We observe exactly this behaviour in our experiments.
The MBE-grown GaAs/AlGaAs superlattice with Si-doped barriers has been used to study a 3D-2D transition under the influence of the in-plane component of applied magnetic field. The longitudinal magnetoresistance data measured in tilted magnetic field
s have been interpreted in terms of a simple tight-binding model. The data provide values of basic parameters of the model and make it possible to reconstruct the superlattice Fermi surface and to calculate the density of states for the lowest Landau subbands. Positions of van Hove singularities in the DOS agree excellently with magnetoresistance oscillations, confirming that the model describes adequately the magnetoresistance of strongly coupled semiconductor superlattices.
We observed a slow relaxation of magnetoresistance in response to applied magnetic field in selectively doped p-GaAs-AlGaAs structures with partially filled upper Hubbard band. We have paid a special attention to exclude the effects related to temper
ature fluctuations. Though this effect is important, we have found that the general features of slow relaxation still persist. This behavior is interpreted as related to the properties of the Coulomb glass formed by charged centers with account of spin correlations, which are sensitive to an external magnetic field. Variation of the magnetic field changes numbers of impurity complexes of different types. As a result, it effects the shape and depth of the polaron gap formed at the states belonging to the percolation cluster responsible for the conductance. The suggested model explains both the qualitative behavior and the order of magnitude of the slowly relaxing magnetoresistance.
We have studied the efficacy of (NH4)2Sx surface passivation on the (311)A GaAs surface. We report XPS studies of simultaneously-grown (311)A and (100) heterostructures showing that the (NH4)2Sx solution removes surface oxide and sulfidizes both surf
aces. Passivation is often characterized using photoluminescence measurements, we show that while (NH4)2Sx treatment gives a 40 - 60 x increase in photoluminescence intensity for the (100) surface, an increase of only 2 - 3 x is obtained for the (311)A surface. A corresponding lack of reproducible improvement in the gate hysteresis of (311)A heterostructure transistor devices made with the passivation treatment performed immediately prior to gate deposition is also found. We discuss possible reasons why sulfur passivation is ineffective for (311)A GaAs, and propose alternative strategies for passivation of this surface.
We have fabricated AlGaAs/GaAs heterostructure devices in which the conduction channel can be populated with either electrons or holes simply by changing the polarity of a gate bias. The heterostructures are entirely undoped, and carriers are instead
induced electrostatically. We use these devices to perform a direct comparison of the scattering mechanisms of two-dimensional (2D) electrons ($mu_textrm{peak}=4times10^6textrm{cm}^2/textrm{Vs}$) and holes ($mu_textrm{peak}=0.8times10^6textrm{cm}^2/textrm{Vs}$) in the same conduction channel with nominally identical disorder potentials. We find significant discrepancies between electron and hole scattering, with the hole mobility being considerably lower than expected from simple theory.
