Abstract

Field-induced electron transport in an InxGa1-xN (x ≅ 0.4) sample grown on GaN has been studied by subpicosecond Raman spectroscopy. Non-equilibrium electron distribution and electron drift velocity due to the presence of piezoelectric and spontaneous fields in the In xGa1-xN layer have been directly measured. The experimental results are compared with ensemble Monte Carlo calculations and reasonable agreements are obtained.
