  • Abstract
    Transitions between the 1s and 2p levels of the fundamental heavy-hole exciton in GaAs quantum wells, followed by scattering into the 2s state, are investigated by resonant THz excitations using a free-electron laser. We report on the external control of this intra-excitonic population transfer by an external magnetic field.
