Asymmetric Quantum

Electric field influences on the electronic states and the optical absorption in an asymmetrical quantum well with semiparabolic potential are investigated. The formula for the absorption coefficients in this asymmetrical quantum well with electric field are deduced by applying iterative method and density-matrix approach. The results are discussed with GaAs/AlGaAs materials and show that the external electric field has a significant effect on the electronic states and absorption coefficients of asymmetric quantum wells.

Trapped Electron

Trapped electron yields were measured by means of optical absorption spectroscopy for a hydrocarbon glass γ-irradiated at 77 K in the presence of an external electric field. It was observed that the yield of trapped electrons increased in the presence of an external electric field as compared with that in the absence of an external electric field. The experimental results were analyzed theoretically and interpreted as due to overall effects involving changes in geminate recombination times which were caused by an external electric field.
