“…Also, IBTs in nitride semiconductor QWs have been the subject of extensive researches for their extremely large oscillator strengths and relatively narrow line widths, and are used in a variety of optoelectronic devices like QW infrared lasers [16,17], switches and MQW electrooptical modulators [18]. Above all, nitride-semiconductor heterostructures have several advantages, namely: (1) the absorption recovery time is considerably lower than 1 ps, (2) a wide range of wavelengths is available with a less-complicated quantum structure, (3) the homogeneous line width is sufficiently broad due to the short dephasing time, (4) two-photon absorption does not interfere with the saturable absorption due to the wide band-gap [19,20].…”
