High-mobility vertical transport in graded-gap GaAs/AlGaAs superlattices

Abstract
In compositionally graded superlattices, grown by molecular beam epitaxy, the carrier mobilities in the direction perpendicular to the layers have been experimentally estimated in an 'all-optical' experiment. Mobilities in low-period graded-gap superlattices are estimated to be greater than those of AlGaAs graded-gap alloys.
