Abstrakt: As an Al-free material system, the GaInAs/GaInP heterostructure has a large conduction-band discontinuity. We report the fabrication of GaInAs/GaInP resonant tunneling diodes which exhibit current density-voltage characteristics with a peak-to-valley current ratio of 7.8 at 4.2 K. To our knowledge, this is the highest value obtained for this material system.
