  abstract     = {{A density-matrix theory for absorption changes in semiconductors induced by electron or hole occupations is outlined. Bound and unbound trions are included via four-point correlation functions representing electron–hole pair transitions in the presence of carrier populations. The spectra calculated for semiconductor nanorings show bleaching of the exciton resonance and induced absorption at energies corresponding to transitions to bound and unbound trion states. Without a magnetic field, induced absorption below the exciton line due to bound negatively (positively) charged trions appears when the two electrons (holes) of the trion are in different bands. A magnetic field introduces characteristic modifications of the spectra that can be attributed to the Aharonov–Bohm effect. It may lead to the formation of additional bound magneto-trion states.}},

The near band-gap semiconductor response is determined by the optical interaction with the resonant or near resonant material polarization that may result in the excitation of carriers (electron–hole pairs) and/or transient coherent nonlinearities. The microscopic analysis of these effects requires the investigation of the relevant quasi-particles and their interactions. Whereas the basic occurrence of a blue shift can be motivated already based on a simple two-level model, a more detailed understanding of the optical Stark effect in semiconductors requires a microscopic modeling of the relevant bands as well as the inclusion of the many-body Coulomb interaction. Compensations among the first- and higher-order Coulomb terms at the spectral positions of the exciton are obtained in the differential absorption induced by incoherent occupations.}},

  abstract     = {{The influence of fifth-order coherences on the spectrally resolved four-wave mixing response of predominantly homogeneously broadened quasi-two-dimensional excitons is studied. Fifth-order signatures are discussed as a function of spectral position and excitation polarization. An exciton–biexciton beating for positive delay times is the dominant effect, which is pronounced at the exciton–biexciton transition for collinearly polarized excitation and at the exciton transition for cross-linearly polarized excitation. For negative delay times and collinearly polarized excitation a pronounced exciton–biexciton beating at the exciton resonance is observed that is vanishing for long negative delays owing to the faster dephasing in the two-exciton continuum compared with the bound biexciton state. These results are in qualitative agreement with microscopic model calculations that include the coherent dynamics of one- and two-exciton resonances up to the fifth order in the optical field.}},
