Abstract
The results of investigations of quantum-well-based excitonic light mo dulators, operating in the transmission and reflection modes, are repo rted. The characteristic features of the optical spectra and the degre es of light modulation in the structures are investigated. It is shown that to increase contrasts substantially the modulators should be use d in a Fabry-Perot interferometer. (C) 1996 American Institute of Phys ics.
