Abstract

In this study, photoluminescence spectra are studied in perovskite quantum dot superlattices based on two-photon absorption processes at 10 K. The dynamics of excitons is obtained using a time-resolved photoluminescence detection system. The sample exhibits typical superfluorescence characteristics in the single-photon excitation case: When the pumping power increases, the transient peak intensity increases nonlinearly, and the radiation lifetime decreases rapidly. Meanwhile, the intensities of the two-photon absorption fluorescence spectra are proportional to the square of the excitation power, and the dynamics of excitons under the two-photon absorption case exhibits the same characteristics as those in the single-photon excitation case. Thus, when the excitation density reaches a certain intensity, two-photon absorption can also induce a superfluorescence process.
