LATTICE MISMATCHED HETEROJUNCTION STRUCTURES AND DEVICES MADE THEREFROM

摘要

Semiconductor heterojunction structures comprising lattice mismatched, single-crystalline semiconductor materials and methods of fabricating the heterojunction structures are provided. The heterojunction structures comprise at least one three-layer junction comprising two layers of single-crystalline semiconductor and a current tunneling layer sandwiched between and separating the two layers of single-crystalline semiconductor material. Also provided are devices incorporating the heterojunction structures, methods of making the devices and method of using the devices.
