Abstract: | In this paper, the transition wavelength and wave function overlap of type-II InxGa1-xAs/GaAs1-ySby quantum wells are numerically calculated using a 4-band k · p Hamiltonian model. The simulation results indicate that absorption wavelength from 2 to 4?μm can be achieved with a strain compensated quantum well structure. The transition wavelength and wave function overlap can be optimized by properly selecting the thicknesses and composition of the quantum well layers. |
