Description:
Low-temperature optical transmission spectra of several In(x)Ga(1-x)/GaAs strained MQWs with x = 0.13-0.19 and well widths of 85-213 A have been measured. The excitonic transitions up to 3C-3H were observed along with steplike structures corresponding to band-to-band transitions, identified as 1C-1L transitions. By fitting experimental results to the calculations, it is concluded that the light holes are in the GaAs barrier region (type II MQW), and the valence-band offset is determined to be 0.30. Attention is given to a possible system in which the transition from type I to type II for light holes might be observed.
