Abstract
Electronic and optical properties of CdZnO/MgZnO quantum well (QW) structures with the depolarization of an internal field are investigated by using the non-Markovian gain model. The Mg composition is selected to give zero internal field for a given Cd composition. The Mg content to give zero internal field is found to increase with increasing Cd content. The peak gain is improved with increasing Cd composition in a range of Cd<0.07 because a quasi-Fermi-level separation rapidly increases with the Cd composition. However, it begins to decrease when the Cd composition exceeds 0.07.
