Excitons are bound electron-hole pairs that dominate the optical response of semiconductors and insulators, especially in materials where the Coulomb interaction is weakly screened. Light absorption (including excitonic effects) has been…
In this letter, we propose a new model to determine the recombination oscillator strength of trions and biexcitons for bound and unbound cases in the effective mass approximation. The validity of our model has been confirmed by the…
The radiative recombination rates of interacting electron-hole pairs in a quantum dot are strongly affected by quantum correlations among electrons and holes in the dot. Recent measurements of the biexciton recombination rate in single…
Using time correlated single photon counting combined with temperature dependent diffraction limited confocal photoluminescence spectroscopy we accurately determine, for the first time, the intrinsic radiative lifetime of single excitons…
In this Communication, it is shown that models used for describing generation and recombination of electrons and holes lead to disagreements with Maxwell's electrodynamics. Self-consistent expressions, more adequately depicting the actual…
For a semiconductor quantum dot strongly coupled to a microcavity, we theoretically investigate phonon-assisted transitions from the exciton to a cavity photon, where the energy mismatch is compensated by phonon emission or absorption. By…
The photoluminescence spectrum of a single quantum dot was recorded as a secondary resonant laser optically dressed either the vacuum-to-exciton or the exciton-to-biexciton transitions. High-resolution polarization-resolved measurements…
We propose the concept of valley coherence and superradiance in the reciprocal space and show that it leads to an $N$-fold decrease of the bright exciton radiative lifetime in quantum dots (QDs) of an $N$-valley semiconductor. Next we…
It has been shown theoretically that strong quantum confinement regime in Si nanocrystals promotes the highly efficient simultaneous excitation of two electron-hole pairs (biexciton) by a single photon. The rate (inverse lifetime) of…
Semiconductor quantum dots are considered to be the leading venue for fabricating on-demand sources of single photons. However, the generation of long-lived dark excitons imposes significant limits on the efficiency of these sources. We…
Control of the band-edge offsets at heterojunctions between organic semiconductors allows efficient operation of either photovoltaic or light-emitting diodes. We investigate systems where the exciton is marginally stable against charge…
We investigate exciton emission of quantum well embedded in a semiconductor microcavity. The analytical expressions of the light intensity for the cases of excitonic number state and coherent state are presented by using secular…
We consider the charged exciton complexes of an ideal two-dimensional electron-hole system in the limit of strong magnetic fields. A series of charged multiple-exciton states is identified and variational and finite-size exact…
We study the theory of itinerant-hole photoluminescence of two-dimensional electron systems in the regime of the magnetically induced Wigner crystal. We show that the exciton recombination transition develops structure related to the…
The dynamics of exciton recombination in an ensemble of indirect band-gap (In,Al)As/AlAs quantum dots with type-I band alignment is studied. The lifetime of confined excitons which are indirect in momentum-space is mainly influenced by the…
The distribution of rates of carrier multiplication (CM) following photon absorption is calculated for semiconductor nanocrystals (NCs). The NC electronic structure is described using a screened pseudopotential method known to give reliable…
The coupling between a 2D semiconductor quantum well and an optical cavity gives rise to combined light-matter excitations, the exciton-polaritons. These were usually measured when the conduction band is empty, making the single polariton…
Electron-hole exchange interactions split the exciton ground state into "dark" and "bright" states. The dynamics of those states depends on the internal relaxation time between bright and dark states (spin-flip time), and on the radiative…
We calculate the photoluminescence spectrum of a single semiconductor quantum dot strongly coupled to a continuum as a function of light frequency, gate voltage, and magnetic field. The spectrum is dominated by the recombination of several…
We study biexcitonic states in two tunnel-coupled semiconductor quantum dots and show that such systems provide the possibility to produce polarization- entangled photons or spin-entangled electrons that are spatially separated at…
