  • Abstract
    A report is presented on the observation of mid-infrared electroluminescence from a multi-period bilayer type-II structure in which the effective interlayer separation is controlled by bias. The emission with powers in the microwatt range is characterised by a linear dependence of the photon energy on the bias.
