Excitons play an essential role in the optical response of two-dimensional materials. These are bound states showing up in the band gaps of many-body systems and are conceived as quasiparticles formed by an electron and a hole. By…

Composite bosons made of two bosonic constituents exhibit deviations from ideal bosonic behavior due to their substructure. This deviation is reflected by the normalization ratio of the quantum state of N composites. We find a set of…

We measure the coherent nonlinear response of excitons in a single-layer of molybdenum disulphide embedded in hexagonal boron nitride, forming a $h$-BN/MoS$_2$/$h$-BN heterostructure. Using four-wave mixing microscopy and imaging, we…

We present results of correlated pseudopotential calculations of an exciton in a pair of vertically stacked InGaAs/GaAs dots. Competing effects of strain, geometry, and band mixing lead to many unexpected features missing in contemporary…

We consider excitons in a quantum dot as q-deformed systems. Interaction of some excitonic systems with one cavity mode is considered. Dynamics of the system is obtained by diagonalizing total Hamiltonian and emission spectrum of quantum…

Optical excitations in moir\'e transition metal dichalcogenide bilayers lead to the creation of excitons, as electron-hole bound states, that are generically considered within a Bose-Hubbard framework. Here, we demonstrate that these…

Although excitons are not exact bosons, they are commonly treated as such provided that their composite nature is included in effective scatterings dressed by exchange. We here \emph{prove} that, \emph{whatever these scatterings are}, they…
