Superfluorescence spectra of excitons in quantum wells

We study the fluorescence light emitted from GaAs excitons in semiconductor quantum wells. The excitons are modeled as interacting bosons. By combining quantum optical methods for the excitonic emission spectrum with many particle descriptions of the transmission through the medium, we can evaluate...

Zusammenfassung:We study the fluorescence light emitted from GaAs excitons in semiconductor quantum wells. The excitons are modeled as interacting bosons. By combining quantum optical methods for the excitonic emission spectrum with many particle descriptions of the transmission through the medium, we can evaluate the spectra outside the well. Comparing with experimental spectra, we get a very good agreement. The method helps to explain the main features of the observed spectra. It is demonstrated that the observed spectra show clear evidence of superfluorescent emission.
