The hydrostatic-pressure and applied electric field dependencies of the binding energy and the optical-absorption spectra, associated with transitions between the n = 1 valence subband and the donor-impurity band, in symmetrical and asymmetrical GaAs-Ga1-xAl xAs double quantum-well structures are calculated using a variational procedure within the effective-mass approximation. Results are obtained for different well and barrier widths, shallow-donor impurity positions, hydrostatic pressure, and applied electric field.
