Abstract

ABSTRACTWe present a detailed experimental study of the influence of electric fields on exciton states in a GaAs/AlGaAs coupled double quantum well structure and discuss the advantages of using this novel structure. The coupling of electronic states in the two quantum wells, due to the narrowness of the barrier between them, leads to an enhancement of the quantum-confined Stark effect (by as much as five times that of the single quantum well case). From the measured energies of the exciton transitions, splittings of the levels in a coupled double quantum well structure were derived without recourse to a theoretical model.
