Coherent secondary emission from resonantly excited two-exciton states: An intrinsic phenomenon

D. Birkedal, Jagdeep Shah, Loren N. Pfeiffer

We report on the observation of coherent secondary emission from resonantly excited bound and unbound two-exciton states in quantum wells. The emission is intrinsic, in contrast to the well-known Rayleigh scattering from excitons that requires disorder. We measure the spectral amplitude and the phase (and, hence, the femtosecond dynamics) of this coherent emission using ultrafast spectral interferometry, and obtain direct information on the contributions to the nonlinear susceptibility from exciton-exciton correlations beyond the mean-field approximation.

Femtosecond coherence dynamics of exciton–polaritons

Haoyuan Jia, Junhui Cao, Fei Chen +14 more

Exciton-polaritons perform as ideal carriers of macroscopic quantum coherence, which can be potentially manipulated through precisely shaping the driving laser field. However, the connection of the coherence properties between the pumping laser and the strongly coupled light-and-matter system is studied to a lesser extent. In this paper, we visualize the femtosecond dynamics of coherence transfer from the driving laser field to the resonantly excited exciton-polariton by an interferometric measurement. The resonant polaritons can effectively preserve the coherence of the pumping laser field in femtosecond timescales. At a high excitation strength, non-resonant polaritons appear at higher energies delayed by several picoseconds, without the phase coherence from the pump, which is understood by a coupled oscillator model. Our results offer the possibility of regulating the polariton coherence by finely shaping the external pump laser fields.

Resonant Secondary Emission from Two-Dimensional Excitons: Femtosecond Time Evolution of the Coherence Properties

Michael Woerner, Jagdeep Shah

Using a novel technique, we simultaneously study the femtosecond dynamics of the amplitude and the coherence of resonant secondary emission from GaAs quantum wells. Two phase-locked pulses resonantly excite excitons in the semiconductor and the subsequently emitted radiation is detected by femtosecond up-conversion. In experiments at various delays and phases between the excitation pulses we identify three different contributions to the secondary emission with different coherence properties in time.
