Exciton states and optical absorption in quantum wires under laser radiation
نویسنده
چکیده
We analyze the excitons states in a quantum wire under intense laser radiation. Electrons and holes are confined by the parabolic potential of the quantum wire. An exactly solvable model is introduced for calculating the exciton binding energy, replacing the actual Coulomb interaction between the electron and the hole by a projective operator.

Fano Effect and Quantum Entanglement in Hybrid Semiconductor Quantum Dot-Metal Nanoparticle System
In this paper, we review the investigation for the light-matter interaction between surface plasmon field in metal nanoparticle (MNP) and the excitons in semiconductor quantum dots (SQDs) in hybrid SQD-MNP system under the full quantum description. The exciton-plasmon interaction gives rise to the modified decay rate and the exciton energy shift which are related to the exciton energy by using ...
متن کاملOptical injection of ac spin currents in a semiconductor via a quantum interference between exciton states of different spatial symmetry
We show theoretically how an ac spin current can be optically injected in a semiconductor. The effect is based on the quantum interference between coherent excitonic states of different spatial symmetry e.g., 1s and 2p states . These excitons are generated by oneand two-photon absorption. Depending on the choice of the polarizations of the corresponding optical pulses, a pure spin current, an e...

Based on the quantum transport equation for the electron-phonon system, the absorption coefficient of sound (acoustic phonons) by absorption of laser radiation in cylindrical quantum wires is calculated for the case of monophoton absorption and the case of multiphoton absorption. Analytical expressions and conditions for the absorption of sound are obtained. Differences between the two cases of...

متن کاملInfrared photo-induced absorption spectroscopy of porous silicon
The quantum confinement model, which assigns some of the luminescence features in porous silicon to size quantization in Si nano-crystallites, also predicts quantization of both the conduction and valence bands into sub-levels. In order to resolve this effect we have used a new experimental technique called “photo-induced infrared absorption spectroscopy”. Here, a pump, visible laser, optically...
