Analysis of homogeneity of 2D electron gas at decreasing of electron density

We investigate the gate voltage dependence of capacitance of a system gate - 2D electron gas (C-Vg). The abrupt drop of capacitance at decreasing concentration was found. The possible reasons of this drop, namely inhomogeneity of electron density distribution and serial resistance of 2D electron gas are discussed. Simultaneous analysis of gate voltage dependences of capacitance and resistance has shown that in heavily doped 2D systems the main role in the drop of capacitance at decreasing concentration plays the resistance of 2D gas. It is found that the investigated systems remains homogeneous down to the low temperature conductivity about (10^-2-10^-3)e^2/h.
