The photoluminescence, magnetoresistance, Shubnikov-de Haas and Hall effect have been investigated in short period InAs/GaAs superlattices with different numbers of periods (3≤N≤24) and a total thickness of 14nm as a function of InAs layer thickness Q in the range 0.33≤Q≤2.7 monolayer (ML). These superlattices represent a quantum well with average composition In0.16Ga0.84As. Photoluminescence intensity and electron mobility enhancement occur when the InAs layer thickness Q is equal to 0.33 or 2.0ML. When Q≥2.7ML, quantum dots are formed. The mobility of electrons and the anisotropy of resistivity do not depend monotonically on the thickness Q of InAs layers.
