Journal ArticleDOI
Direct observation of localized high current densities in GaN films
TL;DR: Using ballistic electron emission microscopy, threading dislocations with a screw component is found to be accompanied by high current densities and low effective Schottky barrier heights as discussed by the authors. And the electronic states responsible for this extremely nonuniform behavior of GaN films are metastable trap states.
Journal ArticleDOI
Imaging and Spectroscopy of Single InAs Self-Assembled Quantum Dots using Ballistic Electron Emission Microscopy.

TL;DR: Single InAs self-assembled quantum dots buried spatially beneath a Au/GaAs interface are probed for the first time using the imaging and spectroscopic modes of ballistic electron emission microscopy (BEEM).
Journal ArticleDOI
Direct Observation of Quasi-Bound States and Band-Structure Effects in a Double Barrier Resonant Tunneling Structure Using Ballistic Electron Emission Microscopy.
TL;DR: The observation of quasi-bound states and band-structure effects as deduced from the temperature evolution of the BEEM spectra shows that BEEM is a powerful spectroscopic tool for studying quantum structures.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ballistic electron emission microscopy study of transport in GaN thin films
TL;DR: In this paper, a second conduction band minimum ∼340 meV above the absolute band minimum at the zone center (Γ point) was observed, which may result from nonuniform strain in the material.
Journal ArticleDOI
Local conduction band offset of GaSb self-assembled quantum dots on GaAs
TL;DR: In this article, the nanometer resolution of ballistic electron emission microscopy is exploited to image individual quantum dots and measure a local band offset of 0.08±0.02 eV.
