Abstract :
Summary form only given. The authors report the observation of refractive index variation in a GaInAs-InP quantum box structure. They also measured the wavelength dependence of the refractive index variation to confirm the quantum box effect. The fabrication process for the quantum box structure is discussed. The field-induced refractive index variation of the quantum box structure was measured using a Mach-Zehnder interferometer
