We find that the carrier-induced reduction of exciton oscillator strength is not influenced by carrier cooling after creation of hot carriers with femtosecond laser pulses. Excitation density experiments suggest that either phase-space filling or Coulomb screening dominates the exciton bleaching, depending on the carrier density.enIII-V HalbleiterIII-V semiconductorsquantum wellstime resolved optical measurementzeitaufgelöste optische Messung621667530Exciton absorption saturation by phase-space filling: Influence of carrier temperature and densitySättigung der Exzitonenabsorption durch Phasenraumfüllen: Einfluß von Trägertemperatur und Dichtejournal article
