Abstract:

Theoretical estimates and the results of vertical transport and optical investigations In GaAsAlGaAs structures show that resonant tunneling can lead efficiently to selective depopulation of the levels resulting in a population inversion and possible stimulated emission due to intersubband transitions between the lowest states in wide-quantum-well structures.
