✦ Synopsis


This paper reports on the observation of optical gain due to charged excitons (trions) in quantum wells. The specific optical coupling of the trion gives rise to stimulated emission on the low-energy wing of the trion photoluminescence line without degeneracy and inversion in the total particle numbers. Gain values as large as 10 4 cm --1 are found for excitation intensities of a few kW/cm. Higher injection levels lead to carrier heating which limits the available gain. A calculation of the absorption-gain crossover based on a kinetically determined equilibrium of excitons, trions and electrons with a common carrier gas temperature describes the experimental data well.

We examined the electrical properties of modulation-doped CdS/ZnSe single quantum wells grown by molecular beam epitaxy. The n-doping was performed in the ZnSe barrier material to realize a two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) in the CdS quantum well (QW). With van de Pauw and Hall bar measurements w

In modulation-doped ZnSe/(Zn,Mg)(S,Se) quantum well structures with electron concentration of about 10 11 cm --2 a new resonant optical transition involving four particles (one hole and three electrons) was found in external magnetic fields in photoluminescence excitation and reflectivity spectra. T
