Abstract
We investigate the transient four-wave mixing (FWM) response of wide ZnSe/Zn 1- xMg xSe single quantum wells in a two-beam self-diffraction configuration. The spectrally resolved FWM signals show excitonic transitions which are essentially homogeneously broadened, and show dephasing times between 1 and 2 ps at a lattice temperature of 10 K. Simultaneous excitation of several exciton states leads to pronounced quantum beats in the FWM signal. The formation of heavy-hole biexcitons with binding energies of E bXX = 3.5 ± 0.5 meV is identified by polarization-dependent measurements. These measurements also indicate that excitation-induced dephasing gives the main contribution to the FWM process.
