The purpose of my thesis is to provide a theoretical analysis of the dynamics of optically excited carriers in semiconductor confined systems. In particular, I will focus the investigations on the effects due to the presence of a strong electron-hole Coulo ...
We consider an electron-phonon system in two and three dimensions on square, hexagonal, and cubic lattices. The model is a modification of the standard Holstein model where the optical branch is appropriately curved in order to have a reflection positive H ...
Cyclotron resonance and photoluminescence measurements have been performed on two types of modulation-doped field-effect transistor heterostructures having their bidimensional channel based, respectively, on an InxGa1-xAs quantum well and an InAs-GaAs shor ...
We study the dynamics of the charged and neutral excitons in a modulation-doped GaAs quantum well by time-resolved photoluminescence under a resonant excitation. The radiative lifetime of the charged exciton is found to be surprisingly short, 60 ps. This t ...
We use a rate equation model in order to reproduce the dynamics of two-dimensional excitons and free carriers in a time resolved photoluminescence experiment. We investigate the dynamics of the exciton formation from free electron-hole pairs, and the evolu ...
We resolve the characteristic emission features of excitons in a single GaAs quantum wire. We report emission from both localized excitons and quasi-one-dimensional excitons that are delocalized over a length of up to several mum. ...

In the present work, we theoretically investigate the intersubband relaxation of electrons in quantum well systems during photoexcitation using an ensemble Monte Carlo approach. In particular, we compare with recent experimental results by Hartig et al. (P ...
Using time-resolved photoluminescence, we have investigated the radiative behavior of neutral and negatively charged excitons in CdTe-based quantum wells. We find that the photoluminescence of negatively charged excitons can be well reproduced by a model o ...
Continuous-wave and time-resolved optical spectroscopy is used to examine a variety of InGaN/GaN quantum-well and quantum-box samples. grown by molecular beam epitaxy. The results are analyzed in order to clarify the respective influences of electric field ...
A theoretical investigation of the exciton formation process from free carriers in a single GaAs/Al1-xGaxAs quantum well is presented. The mechanism for the formation processes is provided by the interaction of the electrons and holes with phonons. The con ...
