Popis: Magnetotransport measurements are reported for In0.53Ga0.47As layers grown by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) at different substrate temperatures (T-s) and either delta or slab-doped with Si. Multiple subband densities deduced from the Fourier analysis of 1.2 K Shubnikov-de Haas measurements are compared with those derived from self-consistent calculations which include nonparabolicity and the doping profile width w(Si) as a fitting parameter. Significant spreading of the Si donors away from the doping plane is deduced for deposition at T-s approximate to 520 degrees C, while no measurable migration is inferred for T-s less than or equal to 470 degrees C, leading to near-ideal delta-doping behavior. Contrary to previous results [McElhinney et al., J. Cryst. Growth 150, 266 (1995)], no evidence for amphoteric behavior has been found for Si areal densities up to 4 X 10(12) cm(-2).
