The feasibility of the intersubband transition (ISBT) in Al(Ga)N/GaN quantum wells (QWs) as a device mechanism for ultrafast optical swiches is theoretically investigated. The 1.55-μm ISBT is shown to be feasible because of its large conduction band discontinuity. The intersubband relaxation time at 1.55-μm is estimated to be 80 fs, which is about 30 times shorter than that in InGaAs QWs. The third order nonlinear susceptibility is estimated to be 1.6×10^<-15> m^2・V^<-2> for N=1×10^<18> cm^<-3>. These characteristics suggest that the ISBT in nitride QWs is a promising mechanism for multi-terabit/s optical switches.
