Exciton front propagation in photoexcited GaAs quantum wells

We report on the study of spatiotemporal self-organization of carriers in photoexcited GaAs quantum wells. Propagating interfaces between electron-rich and hole-rich regions are seen as expanding and collapsing exciton rings in exciton emission patterns. The interfaces preserve their integrity durin...
