  • Abstract
    GaAs-AlxGa1¿xAs modulation doped multilayer structures with 77 K electron mobilities up to 80 300 cm2V¿1s¿1 at a carrier concentration of 6×1016 cm¿3 have been grown by molecular beam epitaxy. Such high mobilities should make the performance of GaAs integrated logic circuits at liquid nitrogen temperature comparable to that of superconducting Josephson junctions.
