Abstract

Indium arsenide (InAs) is a direct-band-gap semiconductor crystallizing in the zinc-blende structure. The relatively small direct band gap (∼0.36 eV at 300 K, Ref. [1]) and resulting high electron mobility (μ_n≥1×10⁴ cm²/Vs at 300 K, Ref. [1]) have made this material interesting for use in Hall-effect device applications (see Ref. [2]). As a substrate, or active layer, InAs can be employed in conjunction with many semiconductors such as AlGaSb or InAsSb and has interesting heterojunction potential for modulation-doped field effect transistors, lasers and detectors in the wavelength range up to 10 μm, and quantum-well structures [2],
