We report on the spatially separated pump-probe study of indirect excitons in the inner ring in the exciton emission pattern. A pump laser beam generates the inner ring and a weaker probe laser beam is positioned in the inner ring. The probe beam is found to suppress the exciton emission intensity in the ring. We also report on the inner ring fragmentation and formation of multiple rings in the inner ring region. These features are found to originate from a weak spatial modulation of the excitation beam intensity in the inner ring region. The modulation of exciton emission intensity anti-correlates with the modulation of the laser excitation intensity. The three phenomena - inner ring fragmentation, formation of multiple rings in the inner ring region, and emission suppression by a weak probe laser beam - have a common feature: a reduction of exciton emission intensity in the region of enhanced laser excitation. This effect is explained in terms of exciton transport and thermalization.

We report on the kinetics of the inner ring in the exciton emission pattern. The formation time of the inner ring following the onset of the laser excitation is found to be about 30 ns. The inner ring was also found to disappear within 4 ns after the laser termination. The latter process is accompanied by a jump in the photoluminescence (PL) intensity. The spatial dependence of the PL-jump indicates that the excitons outside of the region of laser excitation, including the inner ring region, are efficiently cooled to the lattice temperature even during the laser excitation. The ring formation and disappearance are explained in terms of exciton transport and cooling.

A consistent explanation of the formation of a ring-shaped pattern of exciton luminescence in GaAs/AlGaAs double quantum wells is suggested. The pattern consists of two concentric rings around the laser excitation spot. It is shown that the luminesce nce rings appear due to the in-layer transport of hot charge carriers at high photoexcitation intensity. Interestingly, one of two causes of this transport might involve self-organized criticality (SOC) that would be the first case of the SOC observation in semiconductor physics. We test this cause in a many-body numerical model by performing extensive molecular dynamics simulations. The results show good agreement with experiments. Moreover, the simulations have enabled us to identify the particular kinetic processes underlying the formation of each of these two luminescence rings.
The description is presented for the dependence of the indirect exciton condensate density at the ring as a function of the polar angle at zero temperature with the involvement of the processes of formation and recombination of the excitons. In parti cular, starting from the quasi one-dimensional Gross-Pitaevskii equation with a spatially uniform generating term, we derive an exact analytical solution yielding the fragmentation of an exciton ring which is probably observed in the experiments.
We demonstrate theoretically the spontaneous formation of a stochastic polarization in exciton-polariton Bose-Einstein condensates in planar microcavities under pulsed excitation. Below the threshold pumping intensity (dependent on the polariton life -time) the average polarization degree is close to zero, whilst above threshold the condensate acquires a polarization described by a (pseudospin) vector with random orientation, in general. We establish the link between second order coherence of the polariton condensate and the distribution function of its polarization. We examine also the mechanisms of polarization dephasing and relaxation.
The interplay of optics, dynamics and transport is crucial for the design of novel optoelectronic devices, such as photodetectors and solar cells. In this context, transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) have received much attention. Here, strongly b ound excitons dominate optical excitation, carrier dynamics and diffusion processes. While the first two have been intensively studied, there is a lack of fundamental understanding of non-equilibrium phenomena associated with exciton transport that is of central importance e.g. for high efficiency light harvesting. In this work, we provide microscopic insights into the interplay of exciton propagation and many-particle interactions in TMDs. Based on a fully quantum mechanical approach and in excellent agreement with photoluminescence measurements, we show that Auger recombination and emission of hot phonons act as a heating mechanism giving rise to strong spatial gradients in excitonic temperature. The resulting thermal drift leads to an unconventional exciton diffusion characterized by spatial exciton halos.
