Abstract
We have studied transport of a two-dimensional electron gas through a potential barrier prepared on shallow GaAs/AlxGa 1-xAs/InGaP heterostructure by local anodic oxidation (LAO) with an AFM tip. The potential barrier height after LAO was 55 meV, and it increased to 270 meV after oxide line removal at 300 mV, at room temperature. Barriers with this height can be used for room temperature nanometre-sized structures and devices fabrication
