Abstract

Abstract We review the effects of hydrostatic pressure on the confined transitions in quantum well heterostructures, using lattice matched GaAs/AlxGa1-x As, strained layer narrow band gap GaSb/AlSb and InXGa1-xAs/GaAs, and strained layer wide gap Zn1-xCdxSe/ZnSe as examples. We address the problem of shear in lattice mismatched structures by examining a pseudomorphic epilayer, ZnSe/GaAs, where we tune the lattice mismatch with pressure in a configuration where the effects of quantum confinement are absent.
