Abstract

We present preliminary new results on multiperiod piezoelectric-barrier all-optical modulators. It is shown first on single period structures that an incident beam of a few W/cm2 is able to create a space-charge field of ∼20kV/cm in the structure, inducing a 10meV shift in the photoluminescence (PL) spectrum. We discuss then a multiperiod structure showing similar optically-driven PL shifts. Even though the multiperiod structure was not optimized for transmission modulation experiments, we observed a 12% transmission variation at 760nm induced by a 10W/cm2 optical beam.
