Exciton condensates and free carriers in microcavities and coupled quantum well structures

This thesis examines a series of effects associated with condensation in excitonic systems, and in particular in systems of microcavity exciton-polaritons and indirect excitons. A proposal is presented for a terahertz laser based on a microcavity system, in which a polariton condensate is formed, st...
