Abstract

We report on the fabrication and electron transport in a novel heterostructure in which layers of AlGaAs and GaAs have been grown after a submicron free‐standing GaAs wire has been formed. Electronic conduction at low temperatures in this material is shown to be consistent with three‐dimensional hopping conduction with a transition to one‐dimensional hopping at temperatures below 1 K.
