We show that both the Hartree and exchange interactions cause the electron and hole self-energies to highly depend on the plasma density. In contrast, only a weak dependence of the spatial extent of the wave functions, due to exchange interactions, on the plasma density has been found.Our calculations also reveal a strong competition between the exchange and Hartree interactions as a function of plasma density, that in general, depends on the electric field and quantum-well width. The results of numerical calculations of the band-gap renormalization due to many- body effects are used to infer the bistable behavior of the quantum-well heterostructures in an electric field under near band-gap photoexcitation.","PeriodicalId":276773,"journal":{"name":"Material Science and Material Properties for Infrared Optics","volume":"92 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1999-11-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133677566","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The results are interpreted by electron emission over the barrier due to multiphoton and multistep excitation.
