R. Sasagawa et al., ENHANCEMENT OF INTERSUBBAND TRANSITION ENERGIES IN GAAS QUANTUM-WELLSBY SI DELTA-DOPING OF HIGH-CONCENTRATION, Applied physics letters, 72(6), 1998, pp. 719-721
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. (C) 1998 American Institute of Physics.
