Abstract
Two (111)B In0.15Ga0.85As/GaAs multiple quantum well p-i-n diodes, gro wn by molecular beam epitaxy, are investigated by thermally-detected o ptical absorption and electroreflectance. The excitonic properties are calculated by taking into account the contribution of indium segregat ion. An equilibrium model is used to provide the composition profiles. It is shown that indium segregation influences the piezoelectric fiel d determination and the oscillator strengths of the excitonic transiti ons. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
