In the present work, an infrared LED is used to photodope MBE-grown Si:Al(0.3)Ga(0.7)As, a well known persistent photoconductor, to vary the effective electron concentration of samples in situ. Using this technique, we examine the transport…

We have measured the electron spin relaxation rate and the integrated spin noise power in n-doped GaAs for temperatures between 4 K and 80 K and for doping concentrations ranging from 2.7 x 10^{-15} cm^{-3} to 8.8 x 10^{-16} cm^{-3} using…

We combine extensive precision measurements of the optically detected spin dynamics and magneto-transport measurements in a contiguous set of n-doped bulk GaAs structures in order to unambiguously unravel the intriguing but complex…

A metal-insulator transition in two-dimensional electron gases at B=0 is found in Ga(Al)As heterostructures, where a high density of self-assembled InAs quantum dots is incorporated just 3 nm below the heterointerface. The transition occurs…

Transport and magnetic properties have been systematically investigated for SmMnAsO_{1-x} with controlled electron-doping. As the electron band-filling is increased with the increase of oxygen deficiency (x), the resistivity monotonically…

We performed detailed conductivity and tunneling mesurements on the amorphous, magnetically doped material $\alpha$-Gd$_x$Si$_{1-x}$ (GdSi), which can be driven through the metal-insulator transition by the application of an external…

We describe a new possible route to the metal-insulator transition in doped semiconductors such as Si:P or Si:B. We explore the possibility that the loss of metallic transport occurs through Mott localization of electrons into a quantum…

An abrupt first-order metal-insulator transition (MIT) as a jump of the density of states is observed for Be doped GaAs, which is known as a semiconductor, by inducing very low holes of approximately n_p=5x10^{14} cm^{-3} into the valence…

We present a detailed study of the magnetic-field and temperature-dependent polarization of the near-band-gap photoluminescence in Gd-doped GaN layers. Our study reveals an extraordinarily strong influence of Gd doping on the electronic…

Topological insulators are characterized by the existence of band inversion and the possibility of the realization of surface states. Doping with a magnetic atom, which is a source of the time-reversal symmetry breaking, can lead to…

By means of first-principles density-functional theory (DFT) calculations, we perform a comparative analysis of the electronic and magnetic properties of transition metal-doped TiO$_2$. The electronic band gaps of Ti$_x$M$_{1-x}$O$_2$,…

Low-temperature electron spin relaxation is studied by the optical orientation method in bulk n-GaAs with donor concentrations from 10^14 cm^{-3} to 5x10^17 cm^{-3}. A peculiarity related to the metal-to-insulator transition (MIT) is…

We discuss the character of states near the Fermi level in Mn doped GaAs, as revealed by a survey of dc transport and optical studies over a wide range of Mn concentrations. A thermally activated valence band contribution to dc transport, a…

Controllable doping in AlN and its alloys is essential for deep-ultraviolet light sources. Ionization energies for donors in AlN ($\mathrm{Si_{Al}}$, $\mathrm{S_N}$, $\mathrm{Se_N}$) are high. We report first-principles calculations…

Alloying and doping are crucial for enhancing the electronic and optical properties of semiconductors while simultaneously introducing disorder. This report explores the effects of alloying and Si (0.5 at.\%) doping on…

We investigate the influence of an unoccupied band on the transport properties of a strongly correlated electron system. For that purpose, additional orbitals are coupled to a Hubbard model via hybridization. The filling is one electron per…

Recent experiments on the amorphous magnetic semiconductor Gd_x Si_{1-x}, Phys. Rev. Lett. 77, 4652 (1996), ibid 83, 2266 (1999), ibid 84, 5411 (2000), ibid 85, 848 (2000), have revealed an insulator-metal transition (i-m-t), as a function…

The low-temperature resistivity of a SiGe 2-dimensional hole gas has been studied using the gate controlled carrier density as a parameter. A metal-insulator transition is seen both in the temperature and in the electric field behaviour.…

The transition metal nitride BaHfN$_2$, which consists of weakly bonded neutral slabs of closed shell ions, has structural and chemical similarities to other layered nitrides which have impressive superconducting T$_c$ when electron doped:…

The apparent metal-insulator transition is observed in a high quality two-dimensional electron system (2DES) in the strained Si quantum well of a Si/Si_{1-x}Ge_x heterostructure with mobility \mu=1.9 x 10^5 cm^2/Vs at density n=1.45 x…
