  • Abstract
    Bandgap energy renormalization due to many body effects has been studied in a series of n-type 8-nm-wide GaAs/AlGaAs single quantum wells using magnetoluminescence spectroscopy at 1.4 K. The 2D-carrier densities varied between 1 and 12×1011 cm-2. At the maximum 2D-carrier density, the bandgap energy reduction compared to an undoped specimen was found to be about 34 meV
