Abstract/Summary:
A quasi-two-dimensional degenerate electron-hole plasma is observed by photoluminescence in some GaAs/AlAs multiple quantum wells under intense optical excitation. In samples which support a plasma, all type II near crossover to type I, the ;Uniaxial stress experiments indicate that the plasma arises not from the lowest energy single-electron state at X...
