Using a top down approach, vertical GaAs/AlAs resonant tunneling diodes (RTD) with lateral dimensions down to 50 nm have been processed.
DC electrical measurements at very low temperatures have been carried out both in linear and nonlinear regimes. Investigations at room temperature have already shown that the electronic transport properties in these nanodevices are strongly influenced by the lateral depletion region, leading to a new interesting behavior [1]. The actual study allows to evaluate the suggested quantum collimation model, which was used to explain qualitatively the room temperature transport characteristics of the sub-100 nm RTDs.
