Abstract

The effect of the exciton-exciton interaction on the resonance fluorescence of quantum-well excitons is studied. At relative low exciton density, the resonance fluorescence exists only when the exciton-exciton interaction is not negligible. The fluorescence spectrum changes from one peak to two peaks when the pump light intensity is increased beyond a critical value. The fluorescence light is antibunching when the mean exciton number in the quantum well is more than 0.5. The difference between exciton resonance fluorescence and two-level atom resonance fluorescence is presented.
