"100 ps Waveguide Multiple Quantum Well (MQW) Optical Modulator with 10:1 On/Off
Ratio," Electronics Lett. 21, 693-694 (1985). By incorporating two
quantum wells into a capillary waveguide, the authors have made the first MQW optical
modulator with an on/off ratio of at least 10:1. Furthermore, this device was used to
generate an optical pulse less than 100 ps long, the fastest to data with an MQW device
