摘要

In this study,the effects of hydrostatic pressure and temperature on nonlinear optical rectification(OR),second-harmonic generation (SHG),third-harmonic generation (THG) and the linear,nonlinear,and total optical absorption coefficients (OACs) of a semiparabolic plus semi-inverse squared quantum well (QW) are theoretically investigated.The results show that hydrostatic pressure and temperature have significant effects on the optical properties of semiparabolic plus semi-inverse squared QWs,and that the energy levels and magnitudes of the resonant peaks of OR,SHG,THG,and the total OACs vary according to the shape of the limiting potential,the hydrostatic pressure,and the temperature.It is easily seen that the peak positions of the resonant peaks of OR,SHG,THG,and the total OACs in the semiparabolic plus semi-inverse squared QW show a red shift with increasing hydrostatic pressure,but a blue shift with increasing temperature.Therefore,the magnitude and position of the resonant peaks of OR,SHG,THG,and the total OACs can be adjusted by changing the hydrostatic pressure and the temperature,which promise a new degree of freedom in the tunability of various electro-optical devices.
