Abstract
Stimulated emission by optical excitation is investigated in CdZnTe/Cd MnTe quantum well heterostructures. Laser action is achieved at 4.2 K and at 77 K with relatively low threshold values of the excitation int ensity. Photoluminescence excitation spectra of the stimulated emissio n are obtained indicating that the optical gain involves exciton-excit on inelastic scattering.
