Electro-optical properties of excitons in Cu${}_2$O quantum wells: II continuum states

Abstract

We present theoretically calculated optical functions for Cu${}_2$O quantum well (QW) with Rydberg excitons in an external, homogeneous electric field parallel to the QW planes for the energy region above the gap, suitable to observe the Franz-Keldysh (FK) oscillations. We quantitatively describe the amplitudes and periodicity of FK modulations and the influence of both Rydberg excitons and confinement effect on this phenomenon.
