ABSTRACTThe Quantum-Confined Stark Effect in II-VI semiconductor coupled quantum wells is studied theoretically. It is found that because of the difference in localization of the wavefunctions of the heavy hole and the electron subbands involved, large band gap shifts can be induced by an external electric field for quantum wells with zero-field band gaps in the spectrum region from 0.4 µm to 12 µm. Several potential device applications based on this effect are proposed.

We have investigated the quantum-confined Stark effect for a series of four InGaAs–GaAs single quantum wells using photocurrent spectroscopy. All four samples reveal quadratic Stark shifts for the lowest electron-to-heavy-hole transition at weak electric fields. The field dependence becomes subquadratic at large applied fields. The field dependent reduction of the exciton binding energy is measured and is on the order of a millielectron volt for applied electric fields approaching 80 kV cm−1.
