Influence of femtosecond superradiant pulses on spontaneous emission spectra of GaAs/AlGaAs heterostructures

Petr P Vasil'ev, Hirofumi Kan, Teruo Hiruma

The spectra of spontaneous emission accompanying the generation of femtosecond superradiant pulses in GaAs/AlGaAs heterostructures are studied. It is clearly demonstrated that spontaneous emission spectra of electron–hole pairs, which have been left in the semiconductor after the formation of a coherent collective e–h state, correspond to the strong overheating of carriers. This phenomenon can be explained by the effect of dynamic cooling and nonequilibrium condensation of collectively paired carriers at the bottoms of the bands during the superradiant emission, which was observed earlier.

Femtosecond superradiant emission in inorganic semiconductors

Petr P Vasil'ev

A review of an experimental study of superradiance in semiconductor inorganic structures is presented. It is demonstrated that unique properties of superradiant emission are determined by unusual properties of electrons and holes, namely, the formation of BCS-like state in a system of collectively paired electrons and holes. This can adequately explain all features of superradiance, including its femtosecond pulse duration, record peak power, optical spectrum, spatial and temporal coherency and macroscopically large fluctuations. The effect of non-equilibrium condensation of electrons and holes in the phase domain at room temperature is experimentally demonstrated. The critical temperature of condensation in a strongly degenerate system of electrons and holes is finally theoretically estimated.

Experimental Observation of One-Dimensional Superradiance Lattices in Ultracold Atoms

Liangchao Chen, Pengjun Wang, Zengming Meng +5 more

We measure the superradiant emission in a one-dimensional (1D) superradiance lattice (SL) in ultracold atoms. Resonantly excited to a superradiant state, the atoms are further coupled to other collectively excited states, which form a 1D SL. The directional emission of one of the superradiant excited states in the 1D SL is measured. The emission spectra depend on the band structure, which can be controlled by the frequency and intensity of the coupling laser fields. This work provides a platform for investigating the collective Lamb shift of resonantly excited superradiant states in Bose-Einstein condensates and paves the way for realizing higher dimensional superradiance lattices.
