摘要：

We have identified Si-SiGe quantum well structures which strongly absorb light in the 10-15 mu m range and whose band structure is engineered so that the Auger recombination processes are inhibited, thus enhancing the efficiency of such a device. We also present a comparison of our calculated line-shapes with recent experimental results.
