Abstract :
Coherent control of excitons in semiconductors require a sophisticated control method namely the pulse shaping technique. In this paper, we report the manipulation of coherent excitons in single and coupled quantum well structure using phase-locked femtosecond pulses generated by a pulse shaping technique
