Abstract :
Summary form only given. GaAsSb/GaAs quantum wells grown on GaAs substrates are a potential active material for the monolithic growth of 1.3 /spl mu/m VCSELs. In this material system we determine a type II band alignment, with a small conduction band offset /spl Delta/E/sub c/ = 100 meV. We measure material gain coefficients comparable to those of type I InGaAs quantum wells, although under flat band conditions the electrons and holes are spatially separated.
