We study the exciton gas-liquid transition in GaAs/AlGaAs coupled quantum wells. Below a critical temperature, Tc=4.8K, and above a threshold laser power density the system undergoes a phase transition into a liquid state. We determine the…
Photoluminescence (PL) and reflectivity spectra of a high-quality InGaAs/GaAs quantum well structure reveal a series of ultra-narrow peaks attributed to the quantum confined exciton states. The intensity of these peaks decreases as a…
(Ga,In)As/GaAs/Ga(As,Sb) multi-quantum well heterostructures have been investigated using continuous wave and time-resolved photoluminescence spectroscopy at various temperatures. A complex interplay was observed between the excitonic…
We present a low energy model for the Bose-Einstein condensation in a quasi-two-dimensional excitonic gas. Using the flow equations of the Renormalization group and a $\Phi^4$ model with the dynamical critical exponent $z=2$ we calculate…
The spin dynamics of an interwell excitons gas has been investigated in n-i-n GaAs/AlGaAs coupled quantum wells (CQWs). In these heterostructures the electron and the hole are spatially separated in neighboring quantum wells by a narrow…
We develop a theory to calculate exciton binding energies of both two- and three-dimensional spin polarized exciton gases within a mean field approach. Our method allows the analysis of recent experiments showing the importance of the…
Time-resolved photoluminescence measurements show that the decay time for charged excitons in a GaAs two-dimensional electron gas increases by an order of magnitude at high magnetic fields. Unlike neutral excitons, the charged exciton…
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…
Quasi-equilibrium relaxational thermodynamics is developed to understand LA-phonon-assisted thermalization of Bose-Einstein distributed excitons in quantum wells. We study the quantum-statistical effects in the relaxational dynamics of the…
The binding energy and the corresponding wave function of excitons in GaAs-based finite square quantum wells (QWs) are calculated by the direct numerical solution of the three-dimensional Schroedinger equation. The precise results for the…
We propose a way to increase the lifetime of two-dimensional direct excitons and show the possibility to observe their macroscopically coherent state at high temperatures. For a single GaAs quantum well embedded in photonic layered…
Experiments on Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC) of excitons in the semiconductor Cu$_2$O started over thirty years ago, as one of the first serious attempts at exciton BEC. Early claims were based on spectroscopic signatures and transport…
The recombination of two split Bose-Einstein condensates on an atom chip is shown to result in heating which depends on the relative phase of the two condensates. This heating reduces the number of condensate atoms between 10 and 40% and…
We report on the strong coupling between inorganic quantum well excitons and surface plasmons. For that purpose a corrugated silver film was deposited on the top of a heterostructure consisting of GaAs/GaAlAs quantum wells. The formation of…
We present a systematic study of the exciton/electron-hole plasma photoluminescence dynamics in bulk GaAs for various lattice temperatures and excitation densities. The competition between the exciton and electron-hole pair recombination…
We calculate the height dependence of recombination energies, polarization and radiative lifetimes of the optical transitions of various excitonic complexes: neutral excitons (X^0), negatively- (X^-) and positively-charged (X^+) trions, and…
In recent years, experiments by several groups have demonstrated spontaneous coherence in polariton systems, which can be viewed as a type of nonequilibrium Bose-Einstein condensation. In these systems, the polariton lifetime is longer…
Excitons in semiconductors may form correlated phases at low temperatures. We report the observation of an exciton liquid in GaAs/AlGaAs coupled quantum wells. Above a critical density and below a critical temperature the photogenerated…
A variational calculation of the ground state energy of a biexciton in a GaAs/AlGaAs quantum well is presented. The well width fluctuations leading to trapping of the biexcitons are modeled by a parabolic potential. The results obtained for…
Motivated by a recent experiment of spatial and temperature dependent average exciton energy distribution in coupled quantum wells [S. Yang \textit{et al.}, Phys. Rev. B \textbf{75}, 033311 (2007)], we investigate the nature of the…
