Drift mobility of long-living excitons in coupled GaAs quantum wells
We observe high-mobility transport of indirect excitons in coupled GaAs
quantum wells. A voltage-tunable in-plane potential gradient is defined for
excitons by exploiting the quantum confined Stark effect in combination with a
lithographically designed resistive top gate. Excitonic photoluminescence
resolved in space, energy, and time provides insight into the in-plane drift
dynamics. Across several hundreds of microns an excitonic mobility of >10^5
cm2/eVs is observed for temperatures below 10 K. With increasing temperature
the excitonic mobility decreases due to exciton-phonon scattering.Comment: 3 pages, 3 figure
Spectroscopy of nanoscopic semiconductor rings
Making use of self-assembly techniques, we demonstrate the realization of
nanoscopic semiconductor quantum rings in which the electronic states are in
the true quantum limit. We employ two complementary spectroscopic techniques to
investigate both the ground states and the excitations of these rings. Applying
a magnetic field perpendicular to the plane of the rings, we find that when
approximately one flux quantum threads the interior of each ring, a change in
the ground state from angular momentum to takes place.
This ground state transition is revealed both by a drastic modification of the
excitation spectrum and by a change in the magnetic field dispersion of the
single-electron charging energy
Spin blockade in ground state resonance of a quantum dot
We present measurements on spin blockade in a laterally integrated quantum
dot. The dot is tuned into the regime of strong Coulomb blockade, confining ~
50 electrons. At certain electronic states we find an additional mechanism
suppressing electron transport. This we identify as spin blockade at zero bias,
possibly accompanied by a change in orbital momentum in subsequent dot ground
states. We support this by probing the bias, magnetic field and temperature
dependence of the transport spectrum. Weak violation of the blockade is
modelled by detailed calculations of non-linear transport taking into account
forbidden transitions.Comment: 4 pages, 4 figure
