説明
<jats:p>The authors demonstrated the strong sublevel coupling on the intersubband absorption at telecommunication wavelengths in asymmetric II-VI double quantum wells consisting of a deep CdS well and a shallow ZnSe well coupled by a 1-monolayer-thick BeTe barrier. With increasing ZnSe well thickness, the sublevel coupling between excited states first increases to a maximum and then decreases, which results in a transition energy anticrossing and a reverse intensity evolution for e1-e2 and e1-e3 transitions. These results are in good agreement with the self-consistent Schrödinger-Poisson calculation. For optical switch applications, the sublevel-coupling-dependent relaxation time could be increased to lower the switching energy.</jats:p>
