Terahertz emission in single quantum wells after coherent optical excitation of light hole and heavy hole excitons

Abstract

We report on the first observation of coherent terahertz radiation, tunable from 1.4 to 2.6 THz, emerging from GaAs/${\mathrm{Al}}_{0.3}$${\mathrm{Ga}}_{0.7}$As single quantum wells after the coherent optical excitation of both light hole and heavy hole excitons. We attribute the radiation to charge oscillations following the coherent excitation of the excitons in an electric field. Terahertz radiation is also emitted when no electric field is present in the sample suggesting that valence band mixing leads to a significant far-infrared transition dipole moment between the light hole and heavy hole subbands.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
