Abstract

The change in the second-order nonlinear susceptibility of an asymmetric quantum well (AQW) superlattice induced by ion beam-enhanced intermixing has been measured. The surface-emitted second-harmonic intensities radiated from implanted and masked areas of an AQW waveguide were measured and compared for incident wavelengths between = 1480 and 1600 nm. Intermixing resulted in a 60 meV blueshift of the AQW band edge and a uniform suppression of the AQW second-order susceptibility, while the masked AQWs were unchanged.
