Abstract

We have succeeded in generating highly charged excitons in InAs self-assembled quantum dots by embedding the dots in a field-effect heterostructure. We discover an excitonic Coulomb blockage: over large regions of gate voltage, the exciton charge remains constant. We present here a summary of the emission properties of the charged excitons.
