Abstract:
Devices, methods, and techniques for frequency-dependent optical switching are provided. In one embodiment, a device includes a substrate, a first and a second optical-field confining structures located on the substrate, and a quantum structure disposed between the first and the second optical-field confining structures.

Abstract:
Semiconductor devices having at least one barrier layer with a wide energy band gap are disclosed. In some embodiments, a semiconductor device includes at least one active layer composed of a first compound, and at least one barrier layer composed of a second compound and disposed on at least one surface of the at least one active layer. The at least one barrier layer may have a wider energy band gap than an energy band gap of the at least one active layer. The compositions of the first and second compounds may be controlled to adjust the difference between Fermi functions for conduction band and valence band in the at least one active layer.
