Interaction of THz Radiation with Semiconductor Nanostructures: Microscopic Theory — •Stephan Koch and Mackillo Kira — Fachbereich Physik, Philipps-Universität Marburg, Renthof 5, 35032 Marburg

In this talk we review our microscopic approach to treat the interaction of excited semiconductor nanostructures with THz radiation. We use a systematic expansion of the relevant many-body interaction contributions, showing that THz absorption must involve at least two- or more-particle correlations. This feature uniquely qualifies THz spectroscopy as a method to directly detect and identify many-body correlations in a system of incoherent quasi-particle excitations. Applications of the theory to analyze excitonic population generation [1,2], the dynamic build-up of plasmon excitations [3,4], excitonic population inversion and THz gain [5], as well as THz generation in two-color semiconductor lasers [6] will be discussed.
