Gallium Nitride (GaN) and its ternary alloys with aluminium and indium have met a growing interest in the last decade. These semiconductors have a large direct bandgap and can be doped with either silicon (Si) for n-type and magnesium (Mg) for p-type layer ...
This thesis presents the coherence properties of polaritons in semiconductor microcavities. Semiconductor microcavities are microstructures in which the exciton ground state of a semiconductor quantum well is coupled to a photonic mode of a microresonator. ...
A quantum dot is a semiconductor nanostructure that confines the motion of conduction band electrons and valence band holes in all three spatial directions, thus creating fully discrete energy levels. The confinement in the InAs/GaAs material system is gen ...
We present a theoretical study of the physical characteristics of metal/semiconductor junctions. Using first principle pseudopotential calculations, we have investigated the nature of electronic states with energies within the semiconductor band gap of rep ...
Polaritons are half-matter half-light quasiparticles, arising, in a two-dimensional semiconductor microcavity, from the strong-coupling between an exciton (an elementary electronic excitation of a crystal) and a photon. This thesis presents the fabrication ...
Phase transitions to quantum condensed phases - such as Bose - Einstein condensation (BEC), superfluidity, and superconductivity - have long fascinated scientists, as they bring pure quantum effects to a macroscopic scale. BEC has, for example, famously be ...
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 ...

Recent work on polariton-polariton scattering in semiconductor microcavities under continuous wave excitation conditions is reviewed. For weak non-resonant laser excitation, a marked bottleneck in the polariton distribution is observed, but which is suppre ...
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 ...
The emission properties of self-assembled InAs quantum dots (QDs) and lattice-matched GaInNAs quantum wells (QWs) emitting around 1.3 mum were investigated by temperature-dependent and time-resolved photoluminescence (PL). The QDs have much higher PL effic ...
