Ultrafast phase-resolved spectroscopy on semiconductor multiple-quantum-well Bragg structures in different light-matter interaction regimes — •Tilman Höner zu Siederdissen1, Nils C.

We present phase-resolved pulse propagation measurements on semiconductor multiple-quantum-well Bragg structures allowing us to study the transition between different light-matter interaction regimes. Our experiments cover the range from linear excitation to the breakdown of the photonic band gap, on to self-induced transmission and self-phase modulation. The complete knowledge of the output pulse properties including the phase characteristics is used to clearly identify the involved linear and nonlinear effects. An improved fast scanning cross-correlation frequency-resolved optical gating (XFROG) setup is applied to retrieve the pulse phase with an excellent signal to noise ratio.
