The type-I samples show the well-established time-domain beating signatures in the transients as well as the corresponding spectral signatures clearly. The latter are also present in type-II samples; however, the smaller exciton and biexciton binding energies in these structures infer longer beating times which, in turn, are accompanied by faster dephasing of the type-II exciton coherences.

Here, the optical signatures yield the well-established redshifts and blueshifts for the appropriate polarization geometries in type-I quantum well samples also termed “AC Stark Effect”.
