Abstract

The quantum wells provided by a superlattice increase the binding energy of free excitons in GaAs, permitting 300 K bistable operation. Thermal and excitonic refractive index effects compete, resulting in regenerative pulsations. Transverse observations and simulations provide other interesting effects.
