The presence of free charges and numerous discontinuities separating liquid, gas, and solid phases in partially-saturated soils give rise to a relatively understudied phenomenon of interfacial polarization that could impact bulk dielectric permittivity mea ...
Modifying the photonic environment of a semiconductor quantum well by embedding it in a high-reflectivity microcavity gives rise to new fundamental optical excitations, half-quantum well excitons, half-photons. These particles, called polaritons, have a li ...
We report the optical properties of high quality V-groove GaAs/Al0.3Ga0.7.As quantum wires (QWRs) with different thicknesses of the GaAs layer. The systematic investigation of photoluminescence (PL) and photoluminescence excitation (PLE) spectra as a funct ...
The present work is devoted to the study of the dynamics of multi-photon processes in semiconductor heterostructures. A time-dependent description is important for understanding in detail the transient response of semiconductors excited by ultrashort optic ...
We analyze the low temperature photoluminescence properties of two multi-layer stacking of GaN/AlN quantum dots. We report drastic differences of linewidths between continuous wave and time-resolved photoluminescence experiments. After the pulsed excitatio ...
Previous experimental studies have allowed us to observe peculiar localization effects of excitons in GaN/AlGaN quantum wells grown by MBE, as well as efficient nonradiative inter-well carrier transfers. In this work, we use the envelope-function approxima ...
The IEC 61346 standard establishes general principles for structuring the information of technical systems. The present document discusses the ideas shown in the standard, emphasizing the fact that some parts of it are ambiguous and can lead to different i ...
A clear signature of enhanced backscattering of excitons is observed in the directional resonant Rayleigh scattering of light from localized two-dimensional excitons in disordered quantum wells. Its spectral dependence and time dynamics are measured and th ...
Optical parametric oscillator including a semiconductor microcavity being configured to spatially localize polaritons of at least three quantized polariton energy levels to effect an optical parametric oscillation. ...
This paper describes recent work on high-occupancy effects in semiconductor microcavities, with emphasis on the variety of new physics and the potential for applications that has been demonstrated recently. It is shown that the ability to manipulate both e ...
