Ultrafast coherent dynamics of excitons of higher-order subbands in semiconductor quantum wells

S. Arlt, U. Siegner, François Morier-Genoud +1 more

The coherent emission from excitons corresponding to different subband transitions in a 500 Åbroad GaAs/AlGaAs quantum well is studied by spectrally resolved transient four-wave mixing (FWM). For the simultaneous excitation of several subband transitions, the dephasing times of the lowest exciton and higher- order exciton transitions are determined from the width of the resonances in the FWM spectrum. The decay of the spectrally integrated FWM signal as a function of the time delay between the excitation laser pulses does not reflect the dephasing times but is determined by the laser pulse width for multi-subband excitation. This is indicative of quantum interference between exciton and continuum transitions. Many-body Coulomb effects have to be included in a theoretical treatment of these experimental observations.

Nonlinear Response of Localized Excitons: Effects of the Excitation-Induced Dephasing

Paola Borri, W. Langbein, D. Birkedal +2 more

The polarization dependence of the ultrafast nonlinear response of localized excitons in GaAs/AlGaAs quantum wells has been investigated by spectrally resolved, transient four-wave mixing. The role of the excitation-induced dephasing in the delay dependence of the signal is discussed in detail. In particular, we show experimentally that the excitation-induced dephasing gives rise to a photon echo in inhomogeneous systems. We develop a simple analytical model for the delay dependence of the signal, which enables us to deduce the dephasing time from the four-wave mixing decay.
