Abstract

Experimental results concerning the well-width dependence of the acoustic-phonon-assisted energy relaxation of a two-dimensional electron gas in GaAs/Ga1−xAlxAs quantum-well structures are compared with theoretical models that involve piezoelectric and deformation-potential scattering and the effects of static and dynamic screening of the electron–acoustic phonon interaction. It is shown that screening only slightly modifies the predictions of the approximate calculations.
