Abstract. GaAs n-i-p-i-n heterostructures with Be-delta doped layers have been investigated by photoreflectance spectroscopy. The magnitudes of the built-in electric fields and effective band gap energy have been calculated from the analysis of Franz-Keldysh oscillations. Observed increase in energy of interband transition is explained by Burstein-Moss effect due to photogeneration of carriers in delta-doped layer.

Keywords: photoreflectance, delta-doped heterostructures, GaAs.
