Engineering Intersubband Nonlinearities in GaN/AlGaN Coupled Quantum Wells for Optimised Performance in wide Bandwidth Applications

Abstract

We investigate nonlinear optical properties of coup led GaN/AlGaN quantum wells and show that one can engineer the response time and nonlinear phase shift within wide limits and thus achieve optimized performance for a given symbol rate.
