We studied two-dimensional properties of electrons accumulated at the GaAs side of Ga 0 . 5 In 0 . 5 P/GaAs-single heterointerface. Long-range ordering in Ga 0 . 5 In 0 . 5 P causes the electron accumulation at the GaAs side of the heterointerface. Photoluminescence (PL) spectra of GaAs have been systematically measured for undoped unordered and ordered Ga 0 . 5 In 0 . 5 P/GaAs samples. A PL spectrum of the ordered sample shows signals related to the quantized electron state in a triangular potential buried at the heterointerface and the Fermi-edge singularity, in contrast that the unordered sample shows a typical PL spectrum of a high-quality bulk GaAs. Magneto-PL spectra indicate that the reduced exciton masses between parallel and perpendicular to the heterointerface are anisotropic. We found clear optical Shubnikov-de Haas (SdH) oscillations in both the PL intensity and the transition energy under the perpendicular magnetic field. These PL features demonstrate that the electrons accumulated at the heterointerface act as two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG). The sheet-carrier density of the 2DEG is deduced from the period of the observed SdH oscillation and it found to be ∼ 1.20 × 10 1 2 cm - 2 .
