Summary We have studied modulation spectra related to the intersubband transitions at 300 K and 20 K from an In GaAs/GaAs-strained asymmetric triangular quantum well (ATQW) heterostructures fabricated by molecular beam epitaxy using the digital alloy compositional grading (DACG) method. A careful analysis of the spectra has led to the identification of various excitonic transitions,mnh(1), between them-th conduction band state to then-th, heavy (light)-hole band state. Comparison of the observed intersubband transitions with a theoretical calculation based on the envelope, function model, including the effects of strain provided a self-consistent verification that the DACG method produced the intended ATQW composition profile.
