In the first part of this thesis I study the intermediate regime between ordinary lasing and a BEC of exciton polaritons. I take into account the fermionic structure of polaritons, treating the excitons as two-level systems coupled to a…

Direct experimental evidences for excitonic lasing is obtained in optically pumped V-groove quantum wire structures. We demonstrate that laser emission at a temperature of 10 K arises from a population inversion of localized excitons within…

The scaling of exciton binding energy in semiconductor quantum wires is investigated theoretically through a non-variational, fully three-dimensional approach for a wide set of realistic state-of-the-art structures. We find that in the…

The Lloyd model is extended to the exciton problem in quasi one-dimensional structures to study the interplay between the Coulomb attraction and disorder scattering. Within this model the averaging and resummation of the locator series can…

Excitonic properties in the Kagome lattice system, which is produced by quantum wires on semiconductor surfaces, are investigated by using the exact diagonalization of a tight binding model. It is shown that due to the existence of flat…

Quantum size effects for an exciton attached to a spherical quantum dot are calculated by a variational approach. The band line-ups are assumed to be type-II with finite offsets. The dependence of the exciton binding energy upon the dot…

High-quality T-shaped quantum wires are fabricated by cleaved-edge overgrowth with the molecular beam epitaxy on the interface improved by a growth-interrupt high-temperature anneal. Characterization by micro-photoluminescence (PL) and PL…

We consider theoretically the formation and stability of quasi-one dimensional many-body excitons in GaAs quantum wire structures under external photoexcitation conditions by solving the dynamically screened Bethe-Salpeter equation for…

We theoretically study the optical properties and the electronic structure of highly elongated quantum dots (quantum dashes) and show how carrier trapping due to geometrical fluctuations of the confining potential affects the excitonic…

The Bose condensation of 2D dipolar excitons in quantum wells is numerically studied by the diffusion Monte Carlo simulation method. The correlation, microscopic, thermodynamic, and spectral characteristics are calculated. It is shown that,…

We calculate energies, oscillator strengths for radiative recombination, and two-particle wave functions for the ground state exciton and around 100 excited states in a T-shaped quantum wire. We include the single-particle potential and the…

Excitonic fine structure splitting in quantum dots is closely related to the lateral shape of the wave functions. We have studied theoretically the fine structure splitting in InAs quantum dots with a type-II confinement imposed by a GaAsSb…

Quantum wire networks (``quantum crossbars'', QCB) represent a 2D grid formed by superimposed crossing arrays of parallel conducting quantum wires, molecular chains or metallic single-wall carbon nanotubes. QCB coupled only by capacitive…

Strongly correlated bosons in a lattice are a platform to realize rich bosonic states of matter and quantum phase transitions. While strongly correlated bosons in a lattice have been studied in cold-atom experiments, their realization in a…

First-principles calculations reveal an unusual electronic state (dubbed as half excitonic insulator) in monolayer 1T-MX2 (M = Co, Ni and X = Cl, Br). Its one spin channel has a many-body ground state due to excitonic instability, while the…

A new mechanism for exciton lasing in ZnSe/ZnCdSe quantum wells is proposed. Lasing, occurring below the lowest exciton line, may be associated with a BCS-like condensed (coherent) exciton state. This state is most stable at low…

One-dimensional (1D) quantum systems are a cornerstone of many-body physics. However, their realization in solids has traditionally relied on top-down methods, which are limited by structural disorder and coarse confinement. Here, we…

Macroscopically ordered arrays of vortices in quantum liquids, such as superconductors, He-II, and atom Bose-Einstein Condensates (BEC), demonstrate macroscopic coherence in flowing superfluids [1-4]. Despite of the rich variety of systems…

The exciton localization is studied in GaAs/GaAlAs V-shaped quantum wires (QWRs) by high spatial resolution spectroscopy. Scanning optical imaging of different generations of samples shows that the localization length has been enhanced as…

We review the topic of Bose-Einstein condensation of excitons in semiconductors, focusing on the signatures of the macroscopic order of the exciton condensate.
