Capacitance‐voltage (C‐V) profiling techniques and temperature‐dependent Hall and resistivity measurements have been used to characterize modulation‐doped ordered‐GaInP2/disordered‐GaInP2 homojunctions grown by metalorganic vapor phase epitaxy. The C‐V measurements showed a narrow profile at the homointerface with an order of magnitude reduction in carrier density within 3 nm. Typical two‐dimensional behavior was observed from Hall data showing sheet carrier densities as high as 3.6×1013 cm−2 without carrier freeze out and constant mobilities around 900 cm2 V−1 s−1 below T=100 K. The 300 K channel conductivity of this new junction is 3.2×10−3 Ω−1, which is higher than reported in other two‐dimensional electron gases.

The photon energy of PL signal is no measure of the band gap because it strongly depends on impurities, depletion fields, and band-filling effects.
