Abstract
We have studied pattern formation under the quantum confined Stark eff ect and found different patterns with complex structure of the electro n and hole wave functions which give rise to nonuniform dipolar patter ns of the electric charge inside the quantum well layer. The results o btained indicate spontaneous breaking of the transversal invariance, w hich can lead to new optical effects and transport phenomena.
