Popis: | The Wannier–Stark effect has been investigated in strongly coupled three quantum well structures and 23.5 period superlattices consisting of 25 A wide GaAs wells separated by Al0.25Ga0.75As barriers of the same width. A blue shift associated with the Wannier–Stark localization of heavy holes states is observed for the first time, followed by a second blue shift at higher electric fields due to the electron localization. This is contrary to the widely reported single blue shift of the order of (Δe+Δhh)/2, where Δe and Δhh are the electron and heavy hole miniband widths respectively, produced by Wannier–Stark localization in superlattices. |
