双量子阱实现的人工电荷密度波导体

An artificial charge-density-wave conductor realized by double quantum wells

Ting-Ting Kang

摘要:

电荷密度波(CDW)是导体中传导电子密度的调制。在低温下,它可以自发地发生在一些各向异性的一维晶体结构的化合物中,通过强的电子-晶格相互作用机制。许多著名的现象,如非线性输运、窄带噪声、锁模和交流电压下的混沌等,已在CDW中报告。然而,评估CDW导体的应用潜力一直受到阻碍的不便的形状和尺寸的CDW单晶。虽然现代制造技术可以部分解决这些问题(例如,解理膜和纳米线NbSe 3器件),但由制造引起的破坏测量性能的缺陷不容易控制和估计。在这里,我们展示了一个方便的CDW导体制造的半导体双量子阱(DQW)的场效应晶体管(FET)配置:调制的电子密度在一个量子阱附近的充电量子阱的结果。CDW具有明显的电场依赖的脱钉输运特性。这种“人造”的CDW,能够与半导体工业相结合,可能会为CDW的复兴提供新的动力。

英文摘要:

Charge-density-wave (CDW) is a modulation of the conduction electron density in a conductor. Under low temperature, it can spontaneously happen in some compounds that consist of anisotropic one-dimensional crystal structures, via a strong electron-lattice interaction mechanism. Many celebrated phenomena, e.g. non-linear transport, narrow-band noise, mode-locking5 and chaos under AC voltage, etc., have been reported in CDW. However, evaluating the application potential of CDW conductors has been hampered by the inconvenient shapes and sizes of CDW single crystals. Although modern fabrication technology can partly resolve those troubles, (for example, cleaved film and nanowire NbSe3 device), the imperfections induced by fabrication that corrupt measured properties are not easy to control and estimate. Here we demonstrate a convenient CDW conductor fabricated by semiconductor double quantum wells (DQW) in a field-effect transistor (FET) configuration: a modulated electron density in one QW resulted from the charged QW nearby. The electric field dependent depinning transport characteristic of CDW is clearly present. This "artificial" CDW, capable of integrating with semiconductor industry, may give fresh impetus to revive the interests in CDW.
