✦ Synopsis
Results of room-temperature photore¯ectance measurements on three GaAsaAl 0X33 Ga 0X67 As multiquantum well (MQW) structures with three dierent widths of wells and on two GaAsaAl 0X33 Ga 0X67 As high-electron-mobility transistor (HEMT) structures are presented. Energy-gap-related transitions in GaAs and AlGaAs were observed. The Al content in AlGaAs was determined. MQW transition energies were determined using the ®rst derivative of a Gaussian pro®le of the measured resonances. In order to identify the transitions in the MQS, the experimentally observed energies were compared with results of the envelope function calculation method for a rectangular quantum well. The Franz±Keldysh oscillation (FKO) model was also used to determine the built-in electric ®eld in various parts of the investigated structures. The values of the electric ®elds allow us to hypothesise about the origin of these ®elds. *
