摘要
The coupling of single zero-dimensional excitons and biexcitons to acoustic and optical phonons is studied in epitaxially grown Zn1-xCdxSe/ZnSe quantum structures. From the temperature-dependent line width of the exciton photoluminescence (PL) an enhanced coupling to acoustic phonons is found which we explain by the quantum confinement. The LO-phonon coupling is reduced compared to CdSe bulk material. The temperature dependence of the line width of the biexciton PL is similar, indicating a similar coupling strength of the exciton and the exciton-biexciton transition to the crystal lattice.
