Abstract

Transport properties of two-dimensional electron gas in different subbands in triangular quantum wells at AlxGa1-x/GaN heterointerfaces was studied. Strong Shubnikov-de Haas oscillations with the double periodicity were observed using magnetoresistence measurements at low temperatures and high magnetic fields. It was found that the mobility of the 2DEG in the second subband was much higher than that in the first one. It was explained that the interface roughness scattering and alloy disorder scattering possesses much stronger influence on transport properties of the 2DEG in the first subband than that in the second subband in the heterostructures.
