Nonequilibrium Screening and Exciton Dynamics Probed by Femtosecond Laser Pulses

Abstract

Our efforts were aimed at the study of nonequilibrium properties of a high-density electron-hole-pair system, which was generated resonantly by femtosecond laser excitation. The investigation consisted of joint theoretical and experimental approaches. Using state of the art femtosecond experimental techniques, we studied extremely rapid physical phenomena. We have succeeded not only in completing the proposed tasks, but have also initiated some new projects and obtained very interesting results. During the last three years in this program, we have published three physical Review Letters, nine Physical Reviews, several other papers in good journals such as Appl. Phys. Lett., J. Opt. Soc. Am., etc., nineteen invited presentations at important conferences, and several contributed papers at international conferences. The list of publications is given in the next section. Here, we summarize the highlights of our achievements during the last three years of this contract.
