Quantum mechanical tunneling has always been an interesting phenomenon          in semiconductor devices, although the practical utilization of this            effect in device applications is limited.  Recently with the high               degree of crystal interface perfection and the precision growth                 possible with MBE technology, new and novel tunneling structures can be         fabricated.  The goal of this research is to characterize and optimize          electron transport in tunneling structures.  MBE technology will be             developed as necessary to optimize this transport.  Investigation of            novel geometries that could be used as either high speed or opto                electric devices will be performed.
