Abstract
Strained InGaAs quantum wells grown on (111) GaAs are known to be piezoelectric owing to the polar nature of the zinc blende crystal. The resulting built-in electric field can modify the electronic band structure and its optical properties, leading to interesting device applications in electro-optics and non-linear optics.
