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 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 ...
We have investigated the intersubband scattering of electrons in GaAs quantum wells using luminescence up-conversion with 100-fs resolution. The decay time of the n=2 electron-to-heavy-hole transition (e,hh)(2) depends both on the excess energy of the char ...
Ammonia as nitrogen precursor has been used to grow m-V nitrides by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) on c-plane sapphire substrates. The efficiency of NH3 has been evaluated allowing the determination of the actual V/III flux ratio used during the GaN growth. ...
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 ...
We report on time-resolved photoluminescence studies of charged and neutral excitons in a modulation doped GaAs quantum well under resonant excitation and high magnetic field. The radiative lifetime of the charged exciton is rather short, 60 ps at zero hel ...
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 ...
Summary form only given. Radiative coupling between one or more quantum wells (QWs) and the single-cavity mode of a moderate reflectivity semiconductor microcavity leads to normal-mode coupling (NMC), observed as a doubled-peaked spectrum in reflection, tr ...

Using luminescence upconversion with 100 fs resolution, we have investigated the intersubband scattering of electrons in GaAs quantum wells (QWs). The energy separations between the first and second confined electron subband (E(12)) were more or less than ...
