Abstract
Intersubband light absorption measurements have been performed on a se ries of GaAs/AlAs quantum wells with heavy delta doping of Si atoms in the range 9.0 x 10(11)-6.5 x 10(12) cm(-2). The increase of intersubb and transition energy by as much as 38 meV has been observed, and attr ibuted to the deepening of the V-shaped potential by the Si layer and to the depolarization effects.
