Comparison of exciton-biexciton with bound exciton-biexciton dynamics in GaN: Quantum beats and temperature dependence of the acoustic-phonon interaction
The polarization dependence of biexcitonic signals and quantum beats between A-excitons (X-A) and A-biexcitons (XAXA) in a high-quality GaN epilayer is measured by spectrally-resolved and time-integrated four-wave mixing. With cross-linear polarised light, mixed beats with two periods are observed:...

| Summary: | The polarization dependence of biexcitonic signals and quantum beats between A-excitons (X-A) and A-biexcitons (XAXA) in a high-quality GaN epilayer is measured by spectrally-resolved and time-integrated four-wave mixing. With cross-linear polarised light, mixed beats with two periods are observed: the first beating period corresponds to the energy splitting between X-A and XAXA, and agrees well with the calculated XAXA binding energy, while the second beating period corresponds to that between X-A and donor bound excitons ((DX)-X-0). The temperature-dependent homogeneous linewidth shows that the (DX)-X-0 has a larger acoustic phonon coupling coefficient than the XAXA. We also measured the polarization dependent B-biexciton (XBXB) signal. The effective masses for the A- and B-hole were deduced from the binding energy. |
