As. Vedeneev et al., ELECTRON LOCALIZATION DURING NONLINEAR SCREENING OF THE SMALL-SCALE FLUCTUATION POTENTIAL OF A GAAS-ALGAAS HETEROJUNCTION, JETP letters, 58(5), 1993, pp. 375-379
Experimental confirmation of a pronounced localization of the electron
gas at minima of the small-scale potential well of a GaAs-AlGaAs hete
rojunction has been found. The energy scale (Delta similar or equal to
18 meV) and the length scale (200-400 Angstrom) of the fluctuations h
ave been found The value of h is essentially equal to the typical Coul
omb energy of the interaction of ionized donors in the n-AlGaAs layer.
