Abstract :
The paper is concerned with the characterisation of Al/AlInAs/GaInAs hetrostructures. A band model is presented for the metal/semiconductor barrier, and the electrical studies are shown to be consistent with this model. Preliminary studies are reported on a DLTS investigation of the hetrostructure and a deep level situated 0.41 eV below the conduction band of the AlInAs.
