We present a three-dimensional (3D) technique for computing light scattering and propagation in complex structures formed by scatterers embedded in a stratified background. This approach relies on the Green's tensor associated with the background and requi ...
Time-resolved measurements of the resonant Rayleigh scattering from quantum well excitons are shown to provide information on the energy-level statistics of the localized exciton states. The signal transients are reproduced by a microscopic quantum model o ...
We compare several InGaN-based low-dimensional systems, by time-resolved photoluminescence (PL), versus temperature (8 < T < 280 K). We investigate the influence of growing or not an AlGaN barrier on top of the active layer. We address the differences betw ...
Structural dynamics in semi-quantum and quantum solids (Ne, H2 and D2) is reported, and compared to results in classical solids such as Ar. The structural dynamics is driven by excitation of the lowest Rydberg state of the NO impurity. The resulting charge ...
The Falicov–Kimball model consists of itinerant lattice fermions interacting with Ising spins by an on-site potential of strength U. Kennedy and Lieb proved that at half filling there is a low temperature phase with chessboard long range order on Zd, d \ 2 ...
We report on the growth and properties of GaN films grown on Si(111) substrates by molecular beam epitaxy using ammonia. The properties of the layers show that our growth procedure is very efficient in order to overcome the difficulties encountered during ...
By comparing photoluminescence and photo reflectance spectra taken on a series of InGaN-GaN quantum wells grown under identical conditions except the growth time of the InGaN layers, we could monitor the Quantum Confined Stark Effect (QCSE) without changin ...
A reordered valence band in GaN/AlxGa1-xN quantum wells with respect to GaN epilayers has been found as a result of the observation of an enhanced g factor (g*similar to3) in magnetoluminescence spectra in fields up to 55 T. This has been caused by a rever ...
The coherent optical response of high quality microcavities containing quantum wells is investigated. The dynamics of the ac Stark effect is investigated by degenerate pump-probe experiments, by exciting the quantum well excitons at various intensities and ...
Time-resolved up-conversion measurements of secondary emission from multiple quantum wells under resonant femtosecond excitation are reported for GaAs multiple quantum wells with qualitatively different interface disorder. The transient resonant Rayleigh s ...
