We present a collection of zero-, one- and two-quantum two-dimensional coherent spectra of excitons and trions in a CdTe/(Cd,Mg)Te quantum well. The set of spectra provides a unique and comprehensive picture of the exciton and trion nonlinear optical response. Exciton-exciton and exciton-trion coherent coupling is manifest as distinct peaks in the spectra, whereas signatures of trion-trion interactions are absent. Excellent agreement using density matrix calculations is obtained, which highlights the essential role of many-body effects on coherent interactions in the quantum well.

We show theoretically and experimentally the existence of a new quantum interference(QI) effect between the electron-hole interactions and the scattering by a single Mn impurity. Theoretical model, including electron-valence hole correlations, the short and long range exchange interaction of Mn ion with the heavy hole and with electron and anisotropy of the quantum dot, is compared with photoluminescence spectroscopy of CdTe dots with single magnetic ions. We show how design of the electronic levels of a quantum dot enable the design of an exciton, control of the quantum interference and hence engineering of light-Mn interaction.
The photoluminescence (PL) and PL excitation (PLE) spectra of CdTe/ZnTe asymmetric double quantum well (QW) structures are studied on a series of samples containing two CdTe layers with nominal thicknesses of 2 and 4 monolayers (ML) in the ZnTe matrix. The samples differ in the thickness of the ZnTe spacer between CdTe QWs which is 45, 65 and 75 ML. It has been found that at above-barrier excitation the PL from a shallow QW at sufficiently weak excitation intensities is determined by recombination of hot excitons. It is shown that under these conditions, when PL is excited by lasers with different wavelengths, the ratio of the PL intensities from shallow and deep QWs decreases exponentially with an increase of the initial kinetic energy of hot excitons. It is found that energy relaxation of hot excitons with LO phonon emission determine the shape of the PLE spectrum of shallow QW in the range of exciton kinetic energies up to more than 20 LO phonons above ZnTe bandgap. We have shown that the results obtained are well described by the model of charge and energy transfer between QWs.
The exchange interaction between magnetic ions and charge carriers in semiconductors is considered as prime tool for spin control. Here, we solve a long-standing problem by uniquely determining the magnitude of the long-range $p-d$ exchange interaction in a ferromagnet-semiconductor (FM-SC) hybrid structure where a 10~nm thick CdTe quantum well is separated from the FM Co layer by a CdMgTe barrier with a thickness on the order of 10~nm. The exchange interaction is manifested by the spin splitting of acceptor bound holes in the effective magnetic field induced by the FM. The exchange splitting is directly evaluated using spin-flip Raman scattering by analyzing the dependence of the Stokes shift $Delta_S$ on the external magnetic field $B$. We show that in strong magnetic field $Delta_S$ is a linear function of $B$ with an offset of $Delta_{pd} = 50-100~mu$eV at zero field from the FM induced effective exchange field. On the other hand, the $s-d$ exchange interaction between conduction band electrons and FM, as well as the $p-d$ contribution for free valence band holes, are negligible. The results are well described by the model of indirect exchange interaction between acceptor bound holes in the CdTe quantum well and the FM layer mediated by elliptically polarized phonons in the hybrid structure.
Coherent coupling between excitons is at the heart of many-body interactions with transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) heterostructures as an emergent platform for the investigation of these interactions. We employ multi-dimensional coherent spectroscopy on monolayer MoSetextsubscript{2}/WSetextsubscript{2} heterostructures and observe coherent coupling between excitons spatially localized in monolayer MoSe$_2$ and WSe$_2$. Through many-body spectroscopy, we further observe the absorption state arising from free interlayer electron-hole pairs. This observation yields a spectroscopic measurement of the interlayer exciton binding energy of about 250 meV.
Nuclear spin coherence and relaxation dynamics of all constituent isotopes of an n-doped CdTe/(Cd,Mg)Te quantum well structure are studied employing optically detected nuclear magnetic resonance. Using time-resolved pump-probe Faraday ellipticity, we generate and detect the coherent spin dynamics of the resident electrons. The photogenerated electron spin polarization is transferred into the nuclear spin system, which becomes polarized and acts back on the electron spins as the Overhauser field. Under the influence of resonant radio frequency pulses, we trace the coherent spin dynamics of the nuclear isotopes $^{111}$Cd, $^{113}$Cd, and $^{125}$Te. We measure nuclear Rabi oscillations, the inhomogeneous dephasing time $T_2^*$, the spin coherence time $T_2$, and the longitudinal relaxation time $T_1$. Furthermore, we investigate the influence of the laser excitation and the corresponding electron spin polarization on the nuclear spin relaxation time and find a weak extension of this time induced by interaction with the electron spins.
