Abstract :
The polariton propagation in one-dimensional photonic crystals and quasicrystals based on highly doped quantum-well structures has been theoretically studied. The superradiant and photonic crystal regimes have been considered and expressions for band gap edges for light waves in the Bragg structures have been obtained. The reflection and absorption spectra of such systems have been calculated and the so-called two-wave approximation to their study has been applied. The optical properties of the doped multiple-quantum-well structures are compared with those of undoped ones.
