Abstract

In this work, the modulation effects of external magnetic and electric fields on the inter-subband optical absorption coefficients and refractive index changes in asymmetric wurtzite MgZnO/ZnO double quantum wells are investigated considerably. The linear and nonlinear characteristics among the three lowest confined states are calculated here. The obtained results show that the optical properties of the structure are very sensitive to the external field. The optical characteristics related to higher energy levels which have been ignored in past works are as important as the transition related to the ground state. The transition from the ground state to the second excited state is the most sensitive to the external fields. The optical parameters can be risen by two orders of magnitude through the manipulation of the applied electric and magnetic fields.
