摘要
The radiative decay of excitonic molecules can proceed in two channels: decay to a single exciton and a photon or a direct transition to the ground state with the emission of a photon with the entire biexciton energy (approximately twice the exciton energy). The latter channel is induced by anharmonicity and is normally much weaker. We show that in geometrically restricted systems (surfaces, monolayers, microcrystallites, quantum wells), and at low temperatures, the latter channel is superradiant whereas the former is not. This may provide a new method for the direct observation of biexcitons. © 1990.
