Abstract
Optical properties of heterostructures with deep quantum wells have been studied in the framework of four-band Kane mode permitting a nonparabolic energy spectrum of charge carriers to be taken into account. The system AlSb/InAs0.84Sb0.16/AlSb was used as an example. It is established that the nonparabolicity weakly influences the overlap integral between s- and p-states, but notably increase the state density and optical absorption coefficient in the conduction band.
