Coherent excitonic gain under resonant excitation in semiconductor quantum wells

Mark C. Phillips, Hailin Wang

Summary form only given. Strong resonant excitation of atoms can lead to Mollow spectra in saturation spectroscopy, with gain near the Rabi sidebands or with a coherent dip at the atomic resonance. In this paper we report experimental studies on the manifestation of Mollow spectra and especially gain in an excitonic system. We observe a spectrally sharp coherent excitonic gain in a semiconductor quantum well under strong resonant excitation. Theoretical analysis based on modified optical Bloch equations (MOBE) indicates that this coherent gain differs qualitatively from its counterpart in atomic systems and is a direct result of exciton-exciton interactions. Understanding the manifestation of Mollow spectra and gain in an excitonic system provides important insight into coherent optical interactions in semiconductors and is of importance in understanding recently observed parametric gain associated with exciton-polaritons in semiconductor microcavities.

Theory of coherent propagation of a light wave in semiconductors. II

Zizhao Gan, Guozhen Yang

This paper contains the second part of a theory of the coherent propagation of a light wave in semiconductors. After considering the interaction among the electrons, we discuss the matter of the interaction of a semiconductor with light and derive equations of motion for the polarization wave of the excitons which have been excited by the light. We show how our equations can be approximated by linear ones and how the exciton polarization wave can be regarded as a Bose field in the limit of low excitation. In this paper we also discuss in detail the problem of the coherent excitation of discrete exciton levels. We show that the coherently excited discrete exciton is approximately equivalent to a two-level atom which is excited by a light wave; the atom energy-level spacing is a function of the degree of excitation, and the density of equivalent "two-level atoms" is determined by features of the exciton-state wave function.

Coherent Multidimenstional Spectroscopy in Semiconductor Quantum Wells Reveals Dark Excitons and Interactions at Low Excitation Density

Jonathan Owen Tollerud, Jeffrey A. Davis

Using a very sensitive coherent multidimensional spectroscopy in semiconductor quantum wells we reveal dark excitons and their coupling to bright excitons, interactions between excitons at low densities and new approaches to eliminate unwanted signals.
