Ultrafast absorption recovery in germanium/silicon-germanium quantum wells

Abstract

We show ultrafast absorption changes in germanium-based quantum wells, attributing these to exciton bleaching, ultrafast intervalley scattering, carrier escape and transport, and field screening, and compare these experimental results to modeling.
