Abstract
We study the coherent properties of a two-level system based on the ground state neutral exciton of a single InGaAs self-assembled quantum dot (SAQD) embedded in an n-i-Schottky diode. By using a photocurrent technique, we observe Rabi oscillations of the exciton population for pulse-areas of up to 6π. We perform two pulse quantum interference experiments to deduce the decoherence rate.
