Abstract
The effect of a magnetic field in the singular enhancement of tunnelin g near threshold has been investigated in specifically designed double -barrier resonant tunneling structures. The experimental results prove that an additional increase of tunnel current is due to impurity-assi sted tunneling. It is shown that a donor bound state arises as a resul t of dopant diffusion into the barrier. These states are identified as strongly localized DX centers. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science Ltd.
