Abstract
A two-dimensional quantum well structure grown by molecular beam epita xy has been laterally structured with an interference pattern from a h igh-energy pulsed laser. The resulting thermal grating produces a redu ction in the carrier density, which causes a lateral modulation in the band levels, with a period of 380 nm. Photoluminescence spectroscopy has been used for characterization. (C) 1996 American Institute of Phy sics.
