    Notes: We present a novel semiconductor quantum well (QW) structure consisting of alternating (In,Ga)As and Ga(P,As,Sb) layers grown pseudomorphically on a GaAs substrate by all-solid-source molecular beam epitaxy. The band gap of the QW is determined by the thickness and composition of both types of layers and can be varied from 1.1 to 1.55 μm. Calculations show that the observed strong room-temperature photoluminescence in this wavelength range can be explained by a type-II transition in the QW. Structural investigations by reflection high-energy electron diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, and secondary ion mass spectroscopy confirm a triple layer structure with laterally modulated composition. Photoluminescence measurements reveal a linewidth of 50 meV at 1.3 μm and a luminescence decay time of 240 ps. Our investigations demonstrate the feasibility of this materials system for vertical cavity surface-emitting lasers and other optoelectronic devices on GaAs. © 2000 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The effect of coupling between quantum wells on the optical gain has been examined here. Although the results of the calculations mostly agree with previous qualitative expectations of gain suppression with coupling, there are some important exceptions. It is shown that the dependence of peak gain or threshold current density is not a monotonic function of the barrier thickness, and more importantly there are barrier thicknesses (beyond the almost opaque barrier case) for which optical gain can be enhanced and threshold current density reduced as compared to the values for an uncoupled structure. Results and discussion for the gain peak and threshold current density of a GaAs/Al0.3Ga0.7As double quantum well system are presented as a specific example

    Notes: Room temperature photoluminescence at wavelengths between 1.2 and 1.5 μm has been observed in samples consisting of InGaAs/GaPAsSb quantum well structures grown on GaAs. The emission wavelength is varied primarily by changing the composition within the GaPAsSb layer. It is proposed that such long wavelength emission results from a spatially indirect interband transition in the type-II quantum wells where the electron and hole wave functions have large spatial overlap. © 1999 American Institute of Physics.
