Valence band spectroscopy in V-grooved quantum wires
arXiv:cond-mat/9608129 · doi:10.1063/1.117745
Abstract
We present a combined theoretical and experimental study of the anisotropy in the optical absorption of V-shaped quantum wires. By means of realistic band structure calculations for these structures, we show that detailed information on the heavy- and light-hole states can be singled out from the anisotropy spectra {\em independently of the electron confinement}, thus allowing accurate valence band spectroscopy.
