Ac. Bittencourt et al., ENHANCEMENT OF TUNNELING CURRENT OF HOLES DUE TO INTERNAL STRAINS, PHYSICS OF LOW-DIMENSIONAL STRUCTURES, 12, 1997, pp. 187-194
We study effects of axial strains and the admixture of resonant hole s
tates on transmittivities and on partial and total currents in GaxIn1-
xAsInP double-barriers under external fields. We discuss possible opti
mal strain conditions on coherent tunneling probabilities and total cu
rrents of holes which may enhance transport properties of some types o
f carriers.
