It is found that the phase coherence between the two single heavy-hole exciton states decays with a time constant that is considerably longer than the dephasing time of the coherence between these states and the ground state (interband coherence). All the experimental data are well described by numerical solutions of the optical Bloch equations for a phenomenological multilevel model."}],"status":"public","type":"journal_article","publication":"Journal of the Optical Society of America B","title":"Dephasing of interacting heavy-hole and light-hole excitons in GaAs quantum wells","main_file_link":[{"url":"https://opg.optica.org/josab/abstract.cfm?uri=josab-13-5-1026"}],"doi":"10.1364/JOSAB.13.001026","date_updated":"2023-04-05T13:45:14Z","publisher":"Optica Publishing Group","date_created":"2023-04-05T13:45:07Z","author":[{"id":"344","full_name":"Meier, Torsten","orcid":"0000-0001-8864-2072","last_name":"Meier","first_name":"Torsten"},{"first_name":"K.","full_name":"Bott, K.","last_name":"Bott"},{"full_name":"Mayer, E.J.","last_name":"Mayer","first_name":"E.J."},{"first_name":"G.O.","full_name":"Smith, G.O.","last_name":"Smith"},{"first_name":"V.","last_name":"Heuckeroth","full_name":"Heuckeroth, V."},{"first_name":"M.","full_name":"Hübner, M.","last_name":"Hübner"},{"last_name":"Kuhl","full_name":"Kuhl, J.","first_name":"J."},{"full_name":"Schulze, A.","last_name":"Schulze","first_name":"A."},{"full_name":"Lindberg, M.","last_name":"Lindberg","first_name":"M."},{"first_name":"S.W.","full_name":"Koch, S.W.","last_name":"Koch"},{"first_name":"P.","last_name":"Thomas","full_name":"Thomas, P."},{"last_name":"Hey","full_name":"Hey, R.","first_name":"R."},{"first_name":"K.","last_name":"Ploog","full_name":"Ploog, K."}],"volume":13,"year":"1996","citation":{"ama":"Meier T, Bott K, Mayer EJ, et al.
