We review recent results on the linear and non-linear optical response of realistic quantum-wire structures. Our theoretical approach is based on a set of generalized semiconductor Bloch equations, and allows a full three-dimensional…
Coulomb correlations in the optical spectra of semiconductor quantum dots are investigated using a full-diagonalization approach. The resulting multi-exciton spectra are discussed in terms of the symmetry of the involved states.…
The emission spectral pattern of a charged exciton in a semiconductor quantum dot is composed of a quadruplet of linearly polarized lines in the presence of a magnetic field oriented perpendicularly to the direction of the photon momentum.…
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…
We present a self-consistent treatment of the electron-hole correlations in optically excited quantum wires within the ladder approximation, and using a contact potential interaction. The limitations of the ladder approximation to the…
We theoretically investigate the scenario of a semiconductor quantum well in a microcavity, where the band structure is arranged such that optically excited electron-hole pairs cannot form Coulomb-bound excitonic states. However, it is…
We study the effect of magnetic field and geometric confinement on excitons confined to a quantum ring. We use analytical matrix elements of the Coulomb interaction and diagonalize numerically the effective-mass Hamiltonian of the problem.…
Excitonic states and the line shape of optical transitions in coupled quantum dots (quantum dot molecules) are studied theoretically. For a pair of electrically tunable, vertically aligned quantum dots we investigate the coupling between…
Electron-hole correlation in quantum-dot quantum wells (QDQW's) is investigated by incorporating Coulomb and exchange interactions into an empirical tight-binding model. Sufficient electron and hole single-particle states close to the band…
The electron-hole states of semiconductor quantum dots are investigated within the framework of empirical tight-binding descriptions for Si, as an example of an indirect gap material, and InAs and CdSe as examples of typical III-V and II-VI…
The effect of eccentricity distortions of core-multishell quantum wires on their electron, hole and exciton states is theoretically investigated. Within the effective mass approximation, the Schrodinger equation is numerically solved for…
We study carrier interaction induced many-body effects on the excitonic optical properties of highly photoexcited one-dimensional semiconductor quantum wire systems by solving the dynamically screened Bethe-Salpeter equation using realistic…
Because of their conveniently tunable optoelectronic properties, semiconductor nanocrystals have become established components for new devices and emergent technologies, in a broad range of applications which include agriculture, medicine,…
We present a theoretical analysis of the effect of dielectric confinement on the Coulomb interaction in dielectrically modulated quantum structures. We discuss the implications of the strong enhancement of the electron-hole and…
Quantum interference between one- and two-photon absorption pathways allows coherent control of interband transitions in unbiased bulk semiconductors; carrier population, carrier spin polarization, photocurrent injection, and spin current…
We present a consistent theoretical description of few-particle effects in the optical spectra of semiconductor quantum dots, based on a direct-diagonalization approach. We show that, because of the strong Coulomb interaction among…
We measured polarization-dependent photoluminescence-excitation spectra of highly uniform T-shaped quantum wires at 5 K. We attribute one peak to the 1D-exciton ground state and the continuous absorption band to 1D continuum states. These…
The effects of strong Coulomb correlations in dense three-dimensional electron-hole plasmas are studied by means of unbiased direct path integral Monte Carlo simulations. The formation and dissociation of bound states, such as excitons and…
We investigate theoretically the spatial dependence of the linear absorption spectra of single and coupled semiconductor quantum dots, where the strong three-dimensional quantum confinement leads to an overall enhancement of Coulomb…
We present self-consistent numerical calculations of the electronic structure of parallel Coulomb-confined quantum wires, based on the Hohenberg-Kohn-Sham density functional theory of inhomogeneous electron systems. We find that the…
