Simultaneous effects of laser field and hydrostatic pressure on the intersubband transitions in square and parabolic quantum wells

The intersubband transitions in square and parabolic quantum wells under simultaneous action of the hydrostatic pressure and high-frequency laser field have been investigated. We found that the laser-induced blueshift effect on the subband energy levels may be tuned by the pressure action. Our calculations revealed that the oscillator strength of the transition between the ground and the first excited levels depends on the quantum well width and shape, laser field intensity and hydrostatic pressure. This combined effect of pressure and laser field offers a new degree of freedom in the optoelectronic devices applications.
