An electromagnetic propagator formalism is used to calculate the local field in a quantum-well structure consisting of two electronically coupled identical wells each containing only one bound state. Therefore, the photon-drag current, arising as a result of the nonlinear response to the prevailing

We describe photon assisted tunneling (PAT) in single and coupled quantum dot systems which have a relatively large zero-dimensional (0D) level separation. A microwave electric field applied across the tunneling barrier leads to the formation of a sideband structure. For a single quantum dot system,
The thermal population in photocarrier systems coupled by hole mixing tunneling is studied by an analysis of the high energy tails in cw photoluminescence spectra of asymmetric coupled double wells. Photocarriers in wide well are heated due to hole transfer from the narrow well through resonant tunn
