Abstract

We have observed enhanced biexcitonic effect in CdS_0.6Se_0.4 nanocrystals by means of femtosecond two-photon pump-probe spectroscopy. In contrast to a weak biexcitonic photoinduced absorption in the presence of |1S_e1S_h〉 or |1P_e1P_h〉 excitons due to one-photon excitation, we have found a pronounced photoinduced absorption arising from a strong Coulomb coupling between a |1S_e1S_h〉 exciton and a two-photon excited |1S_e1P_h〉 exciton. We have also theoretically shown that |1S_e1S_h;1S_e1P_h〉 biexcitons have a large binding energy compared with |1S_e1S_h;1S_e1S_h〉 and |1S_e1S_h;1P_e1P_h〉 biexciton states.
