Abstract

In this paper we demonstrate the potential of a numerical algorithm that describes intersubband optical spectra by combining many body effects and nonparabolicity characterized by strong k-dependence of both dispersion relations and dipole moments. Applications of our numerical scheme are given for highly strained III-V quantum wells. Preliminary results results for dilute nitride systems are also discussed.
