Proceedings Of 2000 International Conference On Excitonic Processes In Condensed Matter

Download or read book Proceedings of 2000 International Conference on Excitonic Processes in Condensed Matter written by Kikuo Cho and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2001 with total page 506 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At Yamada Conference LIII, papers on many novel materials and on novel phenomena in condensed matter physics were presented OCo for instance, the achievement of simultaneous creation of excitons and free-electron-hole pairs in rare gas solids, and a low frequency fluctuation of the spectral shift of indirect excitons in GaAs coupled quantum wells. Single molecule spectroscopy is a powerful tool for studying molecules including biological systems; the study of delocalization of excitons in the photosynthetic light harvesting antenna system was also reported. The proceedings thus contain many excellent papers dealing with current research topics on the excitonic processes in bulk, quantum wells, quantum dots and other confined systems. This book will serve as an excellent source of recent references and reviews for a wide range of researchers in physics, chemistry, engineering and biological sciences. The proceedings have been selected for coverage in: . OCo Index to Scientific & Technical Proceedings (ISTP CDROM version / ISI Proceedings).
