摘要
Theoretical investigations are presented of the electric-field dependence of normal-incidence interconduction subband absorption in Ga1-xAlxSb/AlSb L-valley quantum wells. Under an applied electric field of 50 kV/cm, a blue shift of the absorption peak from 4.94 to 4.82 mum was found in a Ga0.7Al0.3Sb/AlSb structure with well width of 25 angstrom. The ability to absorb normally incident light and to achieve significant Stark shifts with bias makes the Ga1-xAlxSb/AlSb L-valley system an attractive choice for the 3-5 mum vertical optical modulators.
