Doping superlattices

Journal of Vacuum Science and Technology, 1979
The MBE technique has made feasible the growth of periodic semiconductor structures composed of ultrathin layers with alternating p- and n-doping. This kind of superlattice, in contrast to familiar heterostructure systems, does not contain any interfaces, and, therefore, does not show the problems related to those. Doping superlattices, on the contrary,
