Abstract
We have studied the stimulated emission of MOVPE-grown quantum wells o f Zn0.78Cd0.22Se, sandwiched between two thicker, zinc-richer layers. The gain of these samples has been measured, as a function of temperat ure, using the variable strip-length method. Its mechanism has been sh own to be the radiative recombination of an inhomogeneously broadened exciton system.
