    Metallic behavior in Si/SiGe 2D electron systems

    Full text link
    We calculate the temperature, density, and parallel magnetic field dependence of low temperature electronic resistivity in 2D high-mobility Si/SiGe quantum structures, assuming the conductivity limiting mechanism to be carrier scattering by screened random charged Coulombic impurity centers. We obtain comprehensive agreement with existing experimental transport data, compellingly establishing that the observed 2D metallic behavior in low-density Si/SiGe systems arises from the peculiar nature of 2D screening of long-range impurity disorder. In particular, our theory correctly predicts the experimentally observed metallic temperature dependence of 2D resistivity in the fully spin-polarized system

    The clientele served by the Technology Use Studies Center (TUSC) is updated. Manufacturing leads the list of client firms. The standard industrial classification (SIC) range of these firms is broad. Substantial numbers of college and university faculties are using TUSC services. Field operations inherent in the functions of dissemination and assistance are reviewed. Increasing emphasis among clientele is on environmental concerns and management. A record is provided of the institutions contacted and the extent of TUSC involvement with them, as well as TUSC's cooperation with agencies and organizations. The impact of TUSC and the NASA-sponsored Technology Utilization Program on other public agencies is discussed

    Spin Precession and Avalanches

    Full text link
    In many magnetic materials, spin dynamics at short times are dominated by precessional motion as damping is relatively small. In the limit of no damping and no thermal noise, we show that for a large enough initial instability, an avalanche can transition to an ergodic phase where the state is equivalent to one at finite temperature, often above that for ferromagnetic ordering. This dynamical nucleation phenomenon is analyzed theoretically. For small finite damping the high temperature growth front becomes spread out over a large region. The implications for real materials are discussed.Comment: 4 pages 2 figure

    Very high two-dimensional hole gas mobilities in strained silicon germanium

    Get PDF
    We report on the growth by solid source MBE and characterization of remote doped Si/SiGe/Si two-dimensional hole gas structures. It has been found that by reducing the Ge composition to <=13% and limiting the thickness of the alloy layer, growth temperatures can be increased up to 950 °C for these structures while maintaining good structural integrity and planar interfaces. Record mobilities of 19 820 cm2 V−1 s−1 at 7 K were obtained in normal structures. Our calculations suggest that alloy scattering is not important in these structures and that interface roughness and interface charge scattering limit the low temperature mobilities
