Abstract
Transmission of a lattice matched In0.53Ga0.47As/In0.52Al0.48As multi-quantum wells (MQWs) structure irradiated with halogen lamp was measured at room temperature. Fine steplike structures accentuated by the exciton peaks of interband transitions were observed in the In0.53Ga0.47As/In0.52Al0.48As multi-quantum wells structures by transmission spectroscopy. Below 120 K, a third light-hole transition appeared. Energy of the three light-hole transition was lower than one expected with calculation. The lower energy of the three light-hole transition might suggest nonparabolicity of the light-hole.
