Abstract

Magneto—optic studies on InGaAs/GaAs and GaAs/GaPAs strained—layer superlattices are used to determine the in—plane light—hole valence—band effective masses. Also, hydrostatic pressure—dependent magneto—optic studies have been performed on these samples for magnetic fields up to 65 kG andpressures to 4 kbar in the temperature range of 1.6 - 4 K. The experimental pressure coefficients of the band—gap energy and the effective mass in the InGaAs/GaAsSLS structures were determined.
