Abstract

In electron inversion layers on degenerate p-type semiconductor substrates, tunneling from the electron subbands through the depletion layer into extended states of the valence band exhibits a resonance effect in the current-voltage characteristics. A review is presented of experiments under high magnetic fields, which illuminate the origin of the current resonance and yield some important parameters of interband tunneling in low-dimensional systems.
