The energy structure and the value of the electrooptic effect in heteroepitaxial structures (HES) with multiple InGaAlAs / InAlAs quantum wells have been studied. The interferometric method has been developed to determine small changes in the refractive index under transverse transmission of light through a layered structure. The length of the Mach-Zehnder interferometer for the modulator at HES with multiple InGaAlAs / InAlAs quantum wells has been chosen.

ABSTRACTWe theoretically and experimentally investigate a novel modulation concept on silicon (Si) based on the combination of quantum confinement and plasmon enhancement effects. We experimentally study the suitability of Ge/SiGe quantum wells (QWs) on Si as the active material for a plasmon-enhanced optical modulator. We demonstrate that in QW structures absorption and modulation of light with transverse magnetic (TM) polarization are greatly enhanced due to favorable selection rules. Later, we theoretically study the plasmon propagation at the metal-Ge/SiGe QW interface. We design a novel Ge/SiGe QW structure that allows maximized overlap between the plasmonic mode and the underlying Ge/SiGe QWs.

AbstractAIGaN/GaN quantum well (QWs) were grown on (0001) sapphire substrates by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) using ammonia as nitrogen precursor. The Al composition in the barriers was varied between 8 and 27 % and the well thickness from 4 to 17 monolayers (MLs, 1ML = 2.59Å). X-ray diffraction (XRD) experiments are used to investigate the strain state of both the well and the barriers. The QW transition energy are measured by low temperature photoluminescence (PL). A large quantum confined Stark effect is observed leading to QW luminescence much lower than the emission line of the GaN buffer layer for well width above a certain critical thickness. The built-in electric field responsible for such a phenomenon is deduced from fit of the PL data. Its magnitude is of several hundred kV/cm and increases linearly with the Al composition.
