Abstract

We report the physics of the first high mobility two-dimensional hole gas (2DHG) in a modulation-doped heterostructure on the (110) GaAs surface using Si as a dopant. The 2DHG has a high hole mobility of μ = 175 000 cm 2/V-1 s-1 at a density of n = 2.3 × 1011 cm-2. The density of the 2DHG is either tuned by an evaporated Al front gate or a persistent photoconductivity effect with a factor of ×2 increase in density. We study the anisotropy of the mobility in the two principal in-plane directions [11̄0] and [001] and perform 6-band k p simulations of the bandstructure for 2DHGs without taking bulk inversion asymmetry into account.
