Electron population and optical properties via incoherent pumping fields in semiconductor quantum wells

摘要

In a three-level asymmetric semiconductor quantum well system, owing to the effects that result from the incoherent pumping fields, we find that the electron population, absorption and dispersion properties can be efficiently controlled. The results are achieved by applying the two incoherent pumping fields, so they are very different from the conventional schemes that coherent driving fields are used to control the optical properties and electron population. Thus, it may provide some new possibilities for technological applications in solid-state optoelectronics science.
