Calculation of optical gain in AlGaN quantum wells for ultraviolet emission

Stimulated emission from AlGaN based quantum wells (QWs) emitting at ultraviolet wavelengths is investigated theoretically. Maxwell–Bloch equations in the second Born approximation are solved self-consistently with the Poisson equation. The valence band dispersion is obtained from a 6-band kp-model....
