Abstract :
GaInAsP/InP strained quantum-well two-dimensional photonic crystals have been fabricated. The polarisation of photoluminescence radiating parallel to the substrate plane was changed from TE to TM when the photonic bandgap for TE-polarisation was designed to overlap with the emission energy. This is considered to be caused by the quantum confinement for photons and electrons
