摘要：

The effects of biaxial compressive and tensile strain on the excitonic resonances and associated changes in refractive index and electro-optic effect in quantum wells have been calculated and measured. Theoretical calculations include the important heavy-hole-light-hole band mixing effects. It is seen that the excitonic contributions dominate near the band edge. With increasing compressive strain the linear electro-optic effect is slightly increased, while the quadratic effect is greatly enhanced. The effects are reversed in quantum wells under tensile strain.
