Abstract
As a consequence of the piezoelectric effect and the strain induced from pseudomorphic growth, quantum wells grown in the (111) direction from III-V materials are expected to exhibit large built-in electric fields. We show that these built-in fields can be reduced or screened by the optical generation of electon-hole pairs.
