By means of computer-controlled liquid-phase epitaxy, multiple-quantum-well InP-In1-xGaxP1-zAsz (x∼0.13, z∼0.29) heterostructures of uniform well (Lz∼160 Å) and coupling barrier size are grown and are examined in photoluminescence. Laser operation (77°K) of a six-well five-barrier undoped quaternary quantum-well heterostructure is identified an LO phonon energy (1×hω LO∼30 meV) below the lowest confined-particle transitions (No. 1 e→hh, E1) or at energy hω∼E1- hωLO.
