✦ Synopsis


Quenching of ground-state luminescence is observed for strained InGaAs/InP V-groove quantum wires. This is the first experimental evidence for geometrical symmetry breaking of the lowest valence-band states due to pseudomorphic strain, which was previously predicted by us. There is good agreement between optical characterisation and theoretical modelling.
