Abstract

A heterostructure includes a substrate; an intermediate layer disposed on the substrate; and a group III-V layer having a first primary surface disposed on the intermediate layer and a dopant concentration that varies in a manner including a plurality of ramps with at least one of increasing dopant concentration and decreasing dopant concentration, along the growth direction from the first primary surface throughout the layer's thickness before terminating in a second primary surface.
