In this study, we present a novel numerical model that incorporates the effects of spontaneous and piezoelectric polarization-induced electric fields, along with multiple intersubband transitions, to investigate the optical absorption characteristics of InGaN/GaN strained single and double quantum well’s structures. Focusing on the role of Indium surface segregation (ISS) in polar QW structures, we examine its influence on intersubband transition-related optical absorption and the resulting spectral behavior. Specific structural configurations are designed to achieve four-energy-level with single and double quantum wells, optimized for three-color absorption within the near-infrared range. Our findings reveal that the combined impact of ISS and strain induces a notable red shift in the absorption spectra, with shifts varying significantly across different intersubband transitions. These findings underscore the potential of strained InGaN-based semiconductor compounds for developing advanced multi-color photonic devices, including near-infrared photodetectors and lasers, by harnessing their tunable optical properties

In this study, we investigated the influence of structural parameters, including active region dimensions, electric field intensity, In-composition, impurity position, and potential profiles, on the energy levels, sub-gap transitions, and photovoltaic characteristics of a p-GaN/i-(In, Ga)N/GaN-n (p-QW-n) structure. The finite element method (FEM) has been used to solve numerically the Schrödinger equation. We found that particle and sub-gap energy levels are susceptible to well width, electric field, and impurity position. Particle energy decreases with increasing well size and electric field intensity, while impurity position affects energy based on proximity to the well center. Potential profile shapes, such as rectangular (RQW) and parabolic (PQW), also play a significant role, with PQW profiles providing stronger particle confinement. IB width increases with electric field intensity and saturates at higher In-content. Voc increases with field strength but decreases with In-content, and the parabolic profile yields higher efficiency than the rectangular one. Photovoltaic efficiency is improved with an appropriately oriented electric field and decreases with higher In-content and field intensity. These findings highlight the critical role of structural parameters in optimizing QW-IBSC performance.
