We present an InAs/GaAs quantum dot ͑QD͒ memory structure with all-electrical data access which uses holes as charge carriers. Charging and discharging of the QDs are clearly controlled by a gate voltage. The stored information is read-out by a two-dimensional hole gas underneath the QD-layer. Time resolved drain-current-measurements demonstrate the memory operation. Present write times are 80 ns.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
