摘要
To investigate the properties of a two-dimensional carrier gas at intermediate densities, we perform picosecond transient four-wave mixing experiments on trions (charged excitons) and neutral excitons in modulation p-doped CdTe/Cd1-x-yMgxZnyTe quantum wells. The determination of trion and exciton dephasing rates reveals a localization of both trions and holes in potential fluctuations induced by the ionized remote accepters. We demonstrate that trions can be efficiently used as a charged optical probe sensitive to electrostatic potential fluctuations which are imperceptible for neutral excitons. [S0163-1829(99)15731-X].
