  • Abstract
    The velocity of minority carrier electrons in a heavily doped (p = 2\\times10^{18} cm-3) MBE grown compositionally graded (0.12 eV/µm) AlxGa1-xAs layer has been measured for the first time. The drift velocity is determined to be Ve= 2.3\\times10^{6} cm/sec in a quasi-electric field of 1.2 kV/cm.
