摘要:
Enhanced electroabsorption, due to field-induced degeneration of light-hole and heavy-hole states, is found in tensile-strainedGa0.53In0.47Asquantum wells withAl0.48In0.52Asbarriers. This behavior seems to be specific for the AlGaInAs material system, where the Stark shift is dominated by heavy holes rather than by electrons. The effect, predicted theoretically by band structure calculations, is verified by differential electrotransmission experiments at 300 and 77 K. ©1997 American Institute of Physics.
