Preparation of curved two dimensional electron systems in InGaAs-microtubes — •Stefan Mendach, Olrik Schumacher, Christian Heyn, Holger Welsch, and Wolfgang Hansen — Institut für Angewandte Physik, Universität Hamburg, Jungiusstrasse 11, D-20355 Hamburg, Germany
We present a preparation method to realise transport measurements on evenly curved two-dimensional electron systems (2 DESs). By combining the method of self-rolling strained double-layers [1,2] with a special lithographic procedure we are able to roll-in and contact AlGaAs/GaAs/AlGaAs quantum well structures into tubes or curved lamellas, respectively. Applying a magnetic field to such structures results in a strong modulation with changing sign of the magnetic field components perpendicular to the curved 2 DES plane. Our preparation method allows transport measurements along or perpendicular to this modulation. We present and discuss our first magneto-transport measurements on such rolled 2 DESs.
