The spectroscopic signatures of exciton confinement are analyzed using the frequency-dependent electronic coherence matrix (off-diagonal density-matrix elements). The effects of Hartree and the Fock (exchange) type Coulomb interactions on the exciton binding energy are discussed. The latter result in almost dark excitons situated energetically below the main transition. Off-diagonal Coulomb matrix elements lead to larger exciton binding energies compared with previous calculations, and result in a better agreement of the size dependence of the lowest optical transition with experiment.}},

  abstract     = {{The evolution of the quantum mechanical phase of electronic wave packets on seattering-with phonons is an issue of great relevance in solid-state physics. In semiconductor superlattices, evidence for phase conservation on scattering was obtained when time-resolved THz-emission experiments indicated that the dephasing of the probed intraband coherence may proceed slower than the relaxation of carriers via emission of LO-phonons estimated to occur on a 200-fs time scale as in bulk GaAs.1 To corroborate this interpretation, the unknown LO-phonon emission times in the superlattices must be measured for the experimental conditions of the THz-emission experiments. In this paper, a combined investigation of the coherent and incoherent dynamics of optically excited charge carriers in a superlattice structure is presented. A comparison of the characteristic time constants provides clear evidence for the conservation of the phase of the intraband coherence on LO-phonon relaxation.}},

A microscopic definition of the exciton mean free path (Lf) and localization size (Lρ) is given in terms of the off-diagonal elements of the exciton Green function and density matrix, respectively. Using phonon-induced (homogeneous) and disorder-induced (inhomogeneous) line widths compatible with superradiane measurements, we find that at 4.2 K the localization size is Lρ = 15 and that the shift ΔΩ between the positive and negative peaks in the differential absorption is determined by a different effective size Lf/2 = 5.6 associated with the exciton mean free path. Our model further predicts the recently observed superradiance coherence size determined by Lρ.}},
