Modification of Oscillator Strength in Self-Assembled QDs Using a Laterally Applied Electric Field — •Ruth Oulton1, Matthias Schwab1, Cedric Bardot1, Manfred Bayer1, Viktorina Stavarache2, Dirk Reuter2, and Andreas Wieck21Experimentelle Physik II, Universität Dortmund, D-44221 Dortmund, Germany — 2Angewandte Festkörperphysik, Ruhr-Universität Bochum, Universitätsstraße 150, Gebäude NB, D-44780 Bochum, Germany

We report the results of preliminary investigations into a p-i-n structure with an intrinsic region 2µm wide that allows a field of up to 150kVcm1 to be applied in the lateral direction. Time resolved photoluminescence measurements on ensembles embedded in such a structure reveals an increase in the radiative lifetime of the exciton of 30% with increasing electric field. This fact, along with a significant decrease in the intensity with increasing applied field indicate a decrease in oscillator strength, and hence electron-hole overlap as the field is applied. Measurements on a low density of QDs in such structures reveal a weak Stark shift to lower energy as the field is applied, giving further indications of wavefunction modification.
