Abstract

The appearance of quantum beats (QBs) between heavy-hole (hh) and light-hole (lh) excitons in GaAs quantum wells (QWs) has been observed in many degenerate-four- wave-mixing (DFWM) experiments with subpicosecond optical pulses.1,2·Although the variation of the beat amplitude and phase with polarization of the incident pulses was recognized early on, a consistent theoretical interpretation of exciton coherence for the case of simultaneous excitation of hh and lh excitons is still missing.
