(a) Reflectivity of 200-periodic InAlAs/InP quantum well for (solid line), (dashed line), and (dashed-dot line). (b) Effect of width error on the switch performance. Solid line shows the reflectivity with no error. Dashed line shows 1 nm error of both quantum barrier and well width on the reflectivity. Dashed-dot line shows 2 nm error of quantum barrier and well width on the reflectivity.
