Subpicosecond photon-echo spectroscopy on GaAs/AlAs short-period superlattices.
1993
We present subpicosecond time-resolved four-wave-mixing studies on GaAs/AlAs short-period superlattices having different miniband widths. Photon echoes are observed as a consequence of the inhomogeneous broadening of the excitonic resonance. In addition, the photon-echo signal exhibited periodic modulations as a function of the time delay between the excitation laser pulses. Free excitons and excitons bound to neutral acceptors are identified as the underlying three-level system leading to the observed photon-echo quantum beats. From the beat period we can directly infer the dissociation energy of the bound exciton
