An Al Ga As/GaAs/Al Ga As quantum well exhibiting a bound-to-quasibound intersubband absorptive transition is described. The bound-to-quasibound transition exists when the first excited state has the same energy as the âtopâ (i. e. , the upper-most energy barrier) of the quantum well. The energy barrier for thermionic emission is thus equal to the energy required for intersubband absorption. Increasing the energy barrier in this way reduces dark current. The amount of photocurrent generated by the quantum well is maintained at a high level.

A composition of material for manufacturing nicotine free cigarette substitutes. The composition of material of this invention, maintaining the taste and flavor of cigarette, without tobacco leaf, is composed of including but not limited to leaf powder of Samilax China L and leaf powder of Gomphrena Globosa L. The cigarette substitute of this invention is manufactured and packed like normal cigarettes, 20 cigarettes per pack. The substitute emits no nicotine and no class A carcinogenic substances when inhaled by a human. The cigarette substitute has good cancer-resistance. It cures the harmful effecrs to a human body due to poison such as heavy metals of mercury, nickel, and cadmium imposed by use of regular cigarettes. The substitute of this invention helps to quit smoking and eliminates the poisons from the blood of the pre-smokers.

Extended cutoff wavelengths of PtSi Schottky infrared detectors in the long wavelength infrared (LWIR) regime have been demonstrated for the first time. This result was achieved by incorporating a 1-nm-thick p+ doping spike at the PtSi/Si interface. The extended cutoff wavelengths resulted from the combined effects of an increased electric field near the silicide/Si interface due to the p+ doping spike and the Schottky image force. The p+ doping spikes were grown by molecular beam epitaxy at 450 degrees Celsius using elemental boron as the dopant source, with doping concentrations ranging from 1. times. 10. sup. 19 to 1. times. 10. sup. 21 cm. sup. -3. The cutoff wavelengths were shown to increase with increasing doping concentrations of the p+ spikes.

Carrier mobility in a heterojunction field effect device is increased by reducing or eliminating alloy scattering. The active channel region of the field effect device uses alternating layers of pure silicon and germanium which form a short period superlattice with the thickness of each layer in the superlattice being no greater than the critical thickness for maintaining a strained heterojunction. The gate contact of the field effect device can comprise quantum Si/Ge wires which provide quantum confinement in the growth plane, thereby allowing the field effect device to further improve the mobility by restricting phonon scattering. The structure can be used to improve device speed performance.

An Al. sub. x Ga. sub. 1-x As/GaAs/Al. sub. x Ga. sub. 1-x As quantum well exhibiting a bound-to-quasibound intersubband absorptive transition is described. The bound-to-quasibound transition exists when the first excited state has the same energy as the "top" (i. e. , the upper-most energy barrier) of the quantum well. The energy barrier for thermionic emission is thus equal to the energy required for intersubband absorption. Increasing the energy barrier in this way reduces dark current. The amount of photocurrent generated by the quantum well is maintained at a high level.
