Exciton condensate in semiconductor quantum well structures.
We propose that the exciton condensate may form in a well-controlled way in appropriately arranged semiconductor quantum well structures. The mean-field theory of Keldysh and Kopaev, exact in both the high density and the low density limits, is solved numerically to illustrate our proposal. The electron-hole pairing gap and the excitation spectrum of the exciton condensate are obtained. The ene...
متن کاملInelastic lifetimes of confined two-component electron systems in semiconductor quantum-wire and quantum-well structures.
We calculate Coulomb scattering lifetimes of electrons in two-subband quantum wires and in double-layer quantum wells by obtaining the quasiparticle self-energy within the framework of the random-phase approximation for the dynamical dielectric function. We show that, in contrast to a single-subband quantum wire, the scattering rate in a two-subband quantum wire contains contributions from both...

متن کاملLaser-induced quantum coherence in a semiconductor quantum well.
The phenomenon of electromagnetically induced quantum coherence is demonstrated between three confined electron subband levels in a quantum well which are almost equally spaced in energy. Applying a strong coupling field, two-photon resonant with the 1-3 intersubband transition, produces a pronounced narrow transparency feature in the 1-2 absorption line. This result can be understood in terms ...
متن کاملElectron Transport in Semiconductor Superlattices
In this paper, we rigorously derive a diffusion model for semiconductor superlattices, starting from a kinetic description of electron transport at the microscopic scale. Electron transport in the superlattice is modelled by a collisionless Boltzmann equation subject to a periodic array of localized scatters modeling the periodic heterogeneities of the material. The limit of a large number of p...
