dc.descriptionWe have developed the tight-binding theory to study electronic and optical properties of type-II heterostructures CA/C'A' grown from the zinc-blende semiconductors CA and C'A' along the crystallographic direction [001]. The sp^3s* nearest-neighbor tight-binding model with allowance for the spin-orbit interaction is used to calculate the energy states and the in-plane linear polarization of the spatially-indirect band-edge photoluminescence of InAs/AlSb and ZnSe/BeTe multi-layered structures. The interface parameters for a pair of the nonstandard planes C-A' or C'-A are considered as fitting variables. A wide range of these parameters are shown to allow Tamm-like hole states localized at the interfaces. The theory leads to giant values of the light polarization in the both type-II heterosystems in agreement with existing experimental findings.
