  abstract     = {{Significant aspects of the light–matter interaction can be strongly modified in suitably designed systems consisting of semiconductor nanostructures and dielectric photonic crystals. To analyze such effects, a microscopic theory is presented, which is capable of describing the optoelectronic properties of such hybrid systems via a self-consistent solution of the dynamics of the optical field and the photoexcitations of the material. The theory is applied to investigate the local excitonic resonances, which arise as a consequence of the modified Coulomb interaction in the vicinity of a structured dielectric medium. The excitation of a coherent superposition of the spatially inhomogeneous optical transitions induces an intricate wave packet dynamics. In the presence of dephasing and relaxation processes, the coherent oscillations are damped and the photoexcited carriers relax into spatially inhomogeneous quasi-equilibrium distributions.}},

Four samples with nitrogen concentrations from x=0.48% up to x=2.2% are investigated at different temperatures and with different excitation densities. The experiments suggest that the heterostructure band offset is type I for x=0.48% and type II for x=2.2%. The situation is more complex for x=0.72% and x=1.25%, since these samples are close to the transition from type I to type II.

In particular, the interpretation of the experimental results concerning the band alignment is confirmed by the theoretical analysis.}},

The theoretical approach provides a self-consistent solution of the dynamics of the electromagnetic field and the material excitations. Due to the influence of the structured dielectric environment on the Coulomb interaction, the exciton resonances and the quasiequilibrium carrier densities in the spatially homogeneous semiconductor become space dependent. It is demonstrated that these inhomogeneities lead to distinct modifications of the optical absorption and gain spectra. As an application, numerically calculated density-dependent optical spectra are analyzed for an array of semiconductor quantum wires which are close to a two-dimensional photonic crystal. The spatial inhomogeneities result in novel excitonic absorption features and modification of the optical gain in these structures.}},
