Four wave mixing spectroscopy of quantum dot molecules

Abstract

We study theoretically the nonlinear four wave mixing (FWM) response of an ensemble of coupled pairs of quantum dots (quantum dot molecules). We discuss the shape of the FWM echo signal depending on the parameters of the ensemble: the statistics of transition energies and the degree of size correlations between the dots forming the molecules.
