Abstract
The effects of the potential shape asymmetry on the nonlinear optical absorption and optical rectification in GaAs double quantum dots under intense non-resonant laser field and static electric field were investigated comparatively using the effective mass approximation and the compact density-matrix formalism under steady state conditions. The obtained results show that: (i) for both systems, the optical spectra are redshifted with the increase of the laser intensity only in the presence of the electric field, exceptions appearing at the highest considered laser intensity for both systems and at low laser field intensity for the asymmetric system; (ii) the augment of the static field intensity blueshifts the optical spectra of both systems; (iii) the spectra of the asymmetric system are displaced toward higher energies and show a shoulder-like feature at a given electric field value; (iv) the optical rectification spectra are more intense for the symmetric system.
