ABSTRACTIndium compounds and corresponding epitaxially grown superlattices have provided good single crystals suitable for accurate experimental measurements and have added new interest to the study of the constituent bulk semiconductors and the II-IV-V2 chalcopyrite crystal phases. This paper reports results of structural and electronic properties of narrow gap binary and ternary semiconductors determined selfconsistently from first principles using both the full potential linearized augmented plane wave (FLAPW) and norm-conserving pseudopotentials (PP) total-energy methods.

ABSTRACTFree-carrier induced third-order optical nonlinearities can be both large and fast in narrow-gap semiconductors. We have studied a variety of mechanisms in bulk semiconductors and heterostructures using CO2 lasers and found third-order susceptibilities as large as 2×10−3 esu with picosecond relaxation times. These mechanisms saturate at much higher intensities than do slower mechanisms and hence induce huge modulations of the dielectric function. In addition, most of these processes are nonresonant so they do not require the exact matching of material parameters and are relatively insensitive to temperature.
