Abstract
Plasma and magnetoplasma excitations in high-quality undoped two-dimensional electron systems based on SiGe/Si quantum wells are studied in detail. A two-dimensional electron system is formed by applying a vo-ltage to the top gate, which is partially transparent to subterahertz radiation in the frequency range of 20‒160 GHz. The results for SiGe/Si quantum wells with a Sb δ-doping layer are also presented for comparison. The transport and quantum scattering times for both structures are directly determined. It has been found that the effective electron mass is almost independent of the two-dimensional electron density in a wide density range.
