Indirect Excitons: Fundamental Physics and Applications (INDEX)

Date du début: 1 nov. 2011, Date de fin: 31 oct. 2015,

Indirect excitons are bosonic quasi-particles in semiconductors with unique properties: they have long lifetime and spin-relaxation time, can travel over large distances before recombination, can be cooled down to low temperatures and form a quantum gas, and can be controlled by voltage in-situ. Due to these properties, they form a model system both for the studies of fundamental properties of lig ...
