Abstract :
On the basis of a microscopic theory, the signatures of many-particle correlations in Two-Dimensional Fourier-Transform Spectra (2D-FTS) of semiconductor nanostructures are identified and compared to experimental data. Spectra in the photon energy range of the heavy-hole and light-hole excitonic resonances show characteristic features due to correlations, which depend on the relative polarization directions of the excitation pulses.
