  • The structure we consider bears some resemblance to n–i–p–i (n: donor, i: semi-insulating, p: acceptor) superlattices for other applications, e.g. Stark effect devices [K.-K. Law, et al., Optics Lett. 14 230 (1989); G.W. Yoffe, et al., IEEE Trans. Electron. Devices 40 2144 (1993)]; non-linear optics [G. Li, et al., Appl. Phys.
