We describe the molecular-beam epitaxy growth, as well as both the structural and optical characterization of a set of InAs/GaSb type-II strained-layer superlattice samples, in which the GaSb layer thickness is systematically increased. Absorbance spectroscopy measurements show well-defined features associated with transitions from the various valence subbands to the lowest conduction subband, and also a significant blueshift of the band edge when the GaSb layers thickness is increased. Empirical pseudopotential method calculations are shown to successfully predict the blueshift and help identify the higher-energy transitions.
