Abstract

A high ratio of the peak current density to the valley current density of current-voltage characteristic is accomplished for the double stepped quantum well resonant interband tunneling diode (DSQW RITD). Results for good quantum confinement effect and long drift layer with deep quantum well GaAs/In0.59Ga0.41As/InAs DSQW RITD that has a lower valley current density of about 0.98 A/cm2 and a higher peak-to-valley current ratio (PVCR) reached 622 at room temperature than conventionally designed double quantum well resonant interband tunneling diodes (DQW RITDs) are presented. This PVCR value is also the highest value than those of the other resonant tunneling diodes.
