Ultrafast dynamics of confined and localized excitons in low-dimensional semiconductors

J. M. Hvam, W. Langbein, Paola Borri

Coherent optical spectroscopy in the form of nonlinear transient four-wave mixing (TFWM) and linear resonant Rayleigh scattering (RRS) has been applied to investigate the exciton dynamics of low-dimensional semiconductor heterostructures. The dephasing times of excitons are determined from the decay of the spectrally resolved non- linear signal as a function of the delay between the incident pulses in a two-beam TFWM experiment, and from the real time analysis of single speckles in RRS experiments (pure dephasing). From the density- and temperature- dependence of the dephasing times the exciton-exciton and the exciton-phonon interactions are determined. The degree of coherence of the secondary emission is determined from the speckle analysis.

Coherent Control of Intersubband Transition in Semiconductor Nanostructures

Xuedong Hu, W. Pötz

We investigate theoretically coherent control of optical absorption and emission (optical gain) in semiconductor double wells by use of two coherent light sources. Our analysis is based on a microscopic theory of optical excitation in semiconductors which accounts for many-body effects. Specifically, we show that electron–hole pair (exciton) formation in an asymmetric double well can be controlled by intensity and phase of a dc microwave (MW) field if the pulse duration lies below the MW-induced Rabi period. Similarly, resonant MW fields are shown to allow control of intersubband absorption and emission spectra of semiconductor heterostructures.
