Undoped Electron-Hole Bilayers in a GaAs/AlGaAs Double Quantum Well

Abstract

We present the fabrication details of completely undoped electron-hole bilayer devices in a GaAs/AlGaAs double quantum well heterostructure with a 30 nm barrier. These devices have independently tunable densities of the two-dimensional electron gas and two-dimensional hole gas. We report four-terminal transport measurements of the independently contacted electron and hole layers with balanced densities from $1.2 \times 10^{11}$cm$^{-2}$ down to $4 \times 10^{10}$ cm$^{-2}$ at $T = 300 mK$. The mobilities can exceed $1 \times 10^{6}$ cm$^{2}$ V$^{-1}$ s$^{-1}$ for electrons and $4 \times 10^{5}$ cm$^{2}$ V$^{-1}$ s$^{-1}$ for holes.
