We have studied the luminescence of narrow quantum wires at photoexcitation densities of up to similar to 3 x 10(6) cm(-1). We show that even at these densities, which are well above the expected Mott density of 8 x 10(5) cm(-1), excitonic recombination do ...
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 report on microscopic photoluminescence and photoluminescence excitation of thin Al0.3Ga0.7As/GaAs quantum wells grown on exactly oriented (001) GaAs substrates. The experiments are done at low temperature by selectively exciting a few mu m(2) of the sa ...
In this letter the liquid phase epitaxial growth of In0.71Ga0.29As0.68P0.32 (lambda(g) = 1.32 mum) single quantum well structures lattice matched to (001) InP substrates is reported. The electrical and optical confinement was formed either by InP or In0.88 ...
Results are presented of both linear optical transmission and femtosecond four-wave mixing measurements, on a II-VI semiconductor microcavity into which three quantum wells have been inserted. The excitons (Xs) confined in the wells are strongly coupled to ...
We present second-harmonic generation experiments in p-doped asymmetrically stepped quantum wells using the emission of a free-electron laser in the wavelength interval between 13 and 18 mu m. The wells are designed such that the three fewest valence-subba ...
A study of the elastic exciton-exciton Coulomb scattering in a semiconductor quantum well is presented, including the interexciton exchange of carriers and the spin degrees of freedom. The theoretical results show that electron-electron and hole-hole excha ...
Using femtosecond resonant luminescence, we have measured the intersubband scattering fare of electrons in wide GaAs quantum wells at very low excitation densities. Even when the spacing between the first two electron subbands is smaller than the LO phonon ...
We investigate the exciton formation process from free carriers in a single GaAs quantum well. We focus on the formation processes assisted by emission and absorption of acoustic and optical phonons. The formation rates are evaluated and compared to the ex ...
The spontaneous and stimulated emissions of strongly excited GaAs/(Ga,Al)As quantum wells are investigated in the one-dimensional optical amplifier geometry, using the variable-stripe-length method. The optical amplification and its saturation are studied ...
