We analyze in depth the eigenmodes symmetry of the vectorial electromagnetic wave equation with discrete symmetry, using a recently developed maximal symmetrization and reduction scheme leading to an automatic technique which decomposes every mode into its ...
We derive the closure relation for N polaritons made of three different types of excitons: bosonized excitons, Frenkel, or Wannier excitons. In the case of polaritons made of Wannier excitons, we show how this closure relation, which appears as nondiagonal ...
We report on the observation of negatively- and positively-charged excitons in the photoluminescence spectra of V-groove quantum wires. The. charged exciton binding energy increases with the strength of the quantum confinement. We demonstrate that fluctuat ...
We investigate the charge current that is optically injected by interference between one- and two-photon excitation in the presence of excitonic effects. We consider a realistic V-shaped quantum wire excited slightly below the band gap by two simultaneous ...

Negatively and positively charged excitons are identified in the spatially resolved photoluminescence spectra of quantum wires. We demonstrate that charged excitons are weakly localized in disordered quantum wires. As a consequence, the enhancement of the ...

We study statistical signatures of composite bosons made of two fermions by extending number states to these quantum particles. Two-particle correlations as well as the dispersion of the probability distribution are analyzed. We show that the particle comp ...

We present a novel theory of polaritons which contains the crucial tools to securely tackle the many-body physics of polaritons. Microcavitly polaritons are central to exciting Bose-Einstein condensation and parametric scattering experiments in semiconduct ...

We present a general theory for semiconductor polarons in the framework of the Frohlich interaction between electrons and phonons. The latter is investigated using noncommuting phonon creation/annihilation operators associated with a natural set of nonorth ...

An optical device for amplifying or emitting an optical beam of given wavelength comprises an optical source (20) in combination with a primary optical device (10) which is a semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA), a gain-clamped semiconductor optical ampli ...

To test the validity of replacing a composite fermion by an elementary fermion, we calculate the transition rate from a state made of one free electron and one trion to a similar electron-trion pair, through the time evolution of such a pair induced by Cou ...
