Abstract

Summary form only given. Since the original discovery of the excitonic optical Stark effect, substantial progress has been made in the understanding of this ultrafast nonlinear optical effect. Recently, a red shift of the excitonic absorption line has been reported using low intensity excitation detuned 4.5 meV below the 1s-heavy-hole (hh) resonance and cross-circularly-polarized pulses. This was attributed to higher-order Coulomb correlations, interpretable as bound and unbound two-exciton states and memory effects. For co-circularly polarized pulses the well-known blue shift was found. Here we present a related effect occurring in the higher-intensity regime. Standard pump-probe experiments were performed on high-quality 8.5 nm-thick In_0.04Ga_0.96As multiple quantum well (MQW) samples.
