Abstract: | This paper attempts to summarize some of the salient properties of excitons in GaAs quantum wells and in doing so it will emphasize work at AT&T Bell Labs with which the authors have been associated. Although the text relies heavily on published material, an effort has been made to stress new material, and where feasible, unpublished aspects, e.g., figures, related to earlier work. Topics discussed on the quasi-2D excitons in GaAs quantum well include: their inherent tendency for intrinsic free-exciton emission, exciton binding energies, bound and localized excitons including biexcitons and excitons bound to neutral impurities, effects of n- and p-type modulation and antimodulation doping, and the developments leading to a proposed set of quantum well parameters that results in acceptable fits to the observed exciton transitions for GaAs quantum wells with both square and parabolic potential profiles. |
