Investigation of high In content InGaAs quantum wells grown on GaAs by molecular beam epitaxy

Abstract
Excitonic resonances and the quantum confined Stark effect are observed near 1.3μm in InGaAs quantum wells grown on GaAs using a slowly graded InGaAs buffer. The pin structure performs as a modulator with a relative transmission modulation of 12% at 1.3μm and as a low leakage photodetector.
