Abstract
We have studied the transport properties of a two-dimensional hole gas (2DHG) at the inverted interface of a strained Si0.8Ge0.2 quantum well. By application of a bias voltage to a Schottky gate on top of this inverted heterostructure the 2DHG density n(s) can be controlled, in the range of (1.5-5.2) x 10(11) cm(-2). At a temperature T = 0.33 K, the Hall mobility is 4650 cm(2) V-1 s(-1) at the maximum carrier density. For lower sheet densities (n(s) < 2 x 10(11) cm(-2)) the system undergoes a transition from a weak to strongly localised phase of significantly reduced mobility. From low temperature Shubnikov-de Raas oscillation measurements we have extracted the hole effective masses m* = (0.25 --> 0.28)m(0) and the ratio of transport to quantum lifetimes alpha = (0.92 --> 0.85) for the corresponding carrier density change of n(s) = (5.2 --> 2.5) x 10(11) cm(-2). These results can be explained in terms of the abnormal movement of the hole wave function towards the interface with decreasing n(s), short range interface charge and interface roughness scattering.
