Austin, D. Lee, A. M. Johnson, D. A. B. Miller "Electroabsorption in
II-VI Multiple Quantum Wells" Appl. Phys. Lett., 58, 334-336, (1991). The
authors report the first study of the room-temperature electroabsorption effects in
CdZnTe/ZnTe multiple quantum well structures which exhibit sharp excitonic absorption
peaks. The magnitude of the Franz Keldysh and quantum-confined Stark effects are found to
be comparable to those of III-V semiconductors. With optimized structures the authors
expect II-VI semiconductors to be important components for information processing in the
visible spectrum |
