Abstract
The spatial separation of electrons and holes in n-i-p-i structures leads to large excess carrier populations even with low level illumination. Combined with hetero barriers (e.g., quantum wells) n-i-p-i structures exhibit large optical nonlinearities. The physics and applications of hetero n-i-p-i structures are reviewed.
