Charge carrier dynamics and the development of optical gain in semiconductor quantum dots

State-resolved pump/probe measurements with femtosecond temporal resolution were made to examine the size dependent charge carrier dynamics of strongly confined CdSe quantum dots. Following optical excitation, relaxation in the conduction band is shown to be consistent with the expectations of an A...
