  • Abstract
    An accurate expression for sheet carrier density (ns) calculations in modulation-doped heterostructures is developed from a nonlinear model of the Fermi potential variation with ns. This closed-form expression produces numerical results that agree well with computer simulations of low sheet carrier density AlGaAs/GaAs heterostructures at 300 K
