Optical absorption and birefringence in GaAs/AlAs MQW structures due to intersubband electron transitions

Optical absorption and birefringence due to intersubband electron transitions were investigated in GaAs/AlAs MQW structures. These structures are intended for creation of a mid-infrared laser of a new type. Experimental results on electron redistribution between size-quantization levels under electron heating were obtained up to an electric field of 3500?V?cm-1.
