The effects of interdiffusion on the band structure of two Al{sub x}Ga{sub 1{minus}x}As/GaAs single quantum well (SQW) structures were studied using room temperature photoreflectance. Rapid thermal annealing of the SQW structures at temperatures of 800 C, 900 C and 1,000 C for times up to 180 seconds resulted in limited interdiffusion. Low dose (10{sup 14} cm{sup {minus}2}) oxygen implantation reduced the thermal stability of these structures where the extent of the interdiffusion was found to be greater for the implanted samples for identical annealing conditions.
