The experimental demonstration is performed employing especially designed semiconductor quantum- well structures.enheterostructureHeterostrukturIII-V HalbleiterIII-V semiconductorstime resolved photoluminescencezeitaufgelöste Photolumineszenz621667530Quantum beats versus polarization interference: An experimental distinctionjournal article
