Abstract
Abstract:Electron mobility limited by surface roughness scattering in free-standing GaAs thin ribbon with an internal parabolic quantum well caused by surface state is investigated in detail. Based on analyzing the parabolic quantum well including the energy subband level, wave function and the confined potential profile in the thin ribbon by solving Schrödinger and Poisson equations self-consistently, the electron mobility could be investigated. Conclusion indicates that remote surface roughness (RSR) of the thin ribbon will change the two dimensional electron gas (2DEG) mobility through the medium of barrier height fluctuation of the parabolic well in atomic scale. Calculation results reveal that the 2DEG mobility decreases with increasing roughness amplitude, which is characterized in terms of the surface roughness height and the roughness lateral size.
