Abstract

Resonant inelastic light-scattering techniques have been used to measure directly the single-particle tunneling gap (Δ_SAS) in Al_xGa_1-xAs/GaAs double quantum wells. We have observed a systematic decrease in Δ_SAS with increasing height of the barrier in agreement with the Δ_SAS calculated self-consistently within a Hartree approximation.
