QUANTUM THEORY OF PHOTOLUMINESCENCE FOR COHERENTLY EXCITED SEMICONDUCTOR QUANTUM-WELL SYSTEMS
M. Kira, F. Jahnke, Stephan W. Koch
Photoluminescence of semiconductor quantum wells is studied using a fully quantized theory for the light-matter interaction. Quantum fluctuations of the light field lead to direct coupling between a coherent excitation and luminescence in other directions. Numerical results for the time evolution of the luminescence spectrum and emission intensity dynamics after a femtosecond pulse excitation are presented.
