Abstract
The formation of minibands is demonstrated in photocurrent experiments on shallow In0.53Ga0.47As/In0.40Ga0.60As superlattices grown by low pressure metal-organic vapor phase epitaxy. Field-dependent variations of the spectral shape are attributed to Wannier-Stark-localization. Both type-I transitions between electrons and heavy holes and type-II transitions involving light holes confined in the In0.40Ga0.60As layers are observed and identified by comparison with theoretical calculations of the superlattice electronic transitions.
