  • Abstract
    An InGaP/AlInGaP, surface normal multiquantum well modulator operating at visible wavelengths is reported for the first time. Application of -6 V perpendicular to the plane of the quantum wells produces a 15% change in transmission at 645 nm, caused by a change in absorption in excess of 2900 cm-1
