Luminescence of GaAs/A1 GaAs MQW Structures under Picosecond and Nanosecond Excitation

  • Chapter
Optical Switching in Low-Dimensional Systems

Part of the book series: NATO ASI Series ((NSSB,volume 194))

Abstract

The optical and transport properties of the quasi-two-dimensional electronic system in quantum well structures (QWS) have been extensively investigated in the last years not only because of their importance in basic semiconductor physics but also for their possible application as optoelectronic devices.
