Abstract :
The polarization dependence of the nonlinear photoluminescence in a GaAs quantum-well wavelength was studied. Although the saturation onset light intensity is the same for different polarizations, the peak shift and half width of the luminescence are influenced by the output polarizations. These results indicate the importance of the light-hole-related transition.
