Abstract :
GaAs--GaxAl1-xAs 4-layer heterostructures can exhibit a negative resistance at low temperatures if the p-type layers are doped with Si and Ge, respectively. A region of high resistivity is formed because of freezeout of carriers on deep levels. The effect can be described by Lampert´s model of double injection.
