They possess many excellent performances compared with the conventional structure with only a single electron blocking layer, such as a higher recombination rate, improved light output power and internal quantum efficiency(IQE). The reasons can be concluded as follows. On the one hand, the weakened electrostatic field within the quantum wells(QWs) enhances the electron–hole spatial overlap in QWs, and therefore increases the probability of radioactive recombination. On the other hand, the added n-AlGaN layer can not only prevent holes from overflowing into the n-side region but also act as another electron source, providing more electrons.展开更多

The DBPL A1GaN/GaN HEMT is characterized by two equi-long p-type GaN layers which are buried in the GaN buffer layer under the source side. Under the condition of high-voltage blocking state, two reverse p-n junctions introduced by the buried p-type layers will effectively modulate the surface and bulk electric fields. Meanwhile, the buffer leakage is well suppressed in this structure and both lead to a high breakdown voltage. The simulations show that the breakdown voltage of the DBPL structure can reach above 2000 V from 467 V of the conventional structure with the same gate-drain length of 8μm.展开更多

Here, systematic transport measurements were conducted in graphene-based electronic double-layer structures, revealing giant yet reproducible drag fluctuations at cryogenic temperatures. These fluctuations' characteristics, including amplitude and peak/valley spacing, are mainly determined by the drag layer's carrier dynamics rather than the drive layer's, resulting in violation of the Onsager reciprocity relation. Notably, the drag fluctuations remain observable up to 35 K, far exceeding universal conductance fluctuations within individual layers. This suggests enhanced phase coherence in inter-layer drag compared to single-layer transport, as further confirmed by quantitative analysis of auto-correlation fields of fluctuations under magnetic fields. Our findings provide new insights into quantum interference effects and their interplay with Coulomb interactions in solids. The observations of significant drag fluctuations could potentially help address chaotic signals between nearby components in nanoscale devices.展开更多
