摘要
We report a far-infrared absorption study of internal transitions of shallow Be acceptors in both bulk GaAs and a series of δ-doped GaAs/AlAs multiple quantum well samples with well thicknesses of 20,15 and 10 nm. Low temperature far-infrared absorp-tion measurements clearly show three principal absorption lines due to transitions of Be-acceptor states from the ground state to the first three odd-parity excited states,respec-tively. Using a variational principle,the 2p-1s transition energies of quantum confined Be acceptors are calculated as a function of the well width. It is found that the theoretical calculation of the 2pz → 1s transitions is in good agreement with the D-like line experi-mental data.
