  • Abstract
    Summary form only given. Asymmetric electron and hole envelope wavefunctions in asymmetric quantum wells yield huge optical nonlinearities which have high potentialities for new photonic devices. We will review the theoretical and experimental results concerning intersubband and interband transitions
