Abstract

Here we present a microscopic quantum theory able to describe the quantum optical effects originating from nonlinear optical interactions involving excitons. This theory has been exploited to predict the generation of entangled photon pairs in semiconductors. We also discuss the influence of many-body and correlation effects on the transient optical response of quantum well excitons embedded in semiconductor microcavities.
