Thermopower-enhanced efficiency of Si/SiGe ballistic rectifiers

Injection-type ballistic rectifiers on Si/SiGe are studied with respect to the influence of gate voltage on the transfer resistance RT (output voltage divided by input current) for different positions of a local gate electrode. The rectifiers are trifurcated quantum wires with straight voltage stem and oblique current-injecting leads. Depending on the gate configuration, thermopower contributions arise from nearly-pinched stem regions which either cancel each other or impose upon the ballistic signal with same or opposite polarity. At best, this enhances RT to a maximum value of 470 Ohm close to threshold voltage.

Remote-doping scattering and the local field corrections in the 2D electron system in a modulation-doped Si/SiGe quantum well

The small, about 30% magnetoresistance at the onset of full spin polarization in the 2D electron system in a modulation-doped Si/SiGe quantum well gives evidence that it is the remote doping that determines the transport scattering time. Measurements of the mobility in this strongly-interacting electron system with remote-doping scattering allow us to arrive at a conclusion that the Hubbard form underestimates the local field corrections by about a factor of 2.
