Abstract

An optical coherent manipulation of excitonic polarizations in hexagonal bulk GaN is achieved by means of an interferometric technique combined with spectrally-resolved degenerate four-wave-mixing (FWM). Initial phase of the FWM quantum beats between A and B excitonic polarizations are arbitrarily controlled, in which simultaneous increase (decrease) of the beats in both polarizations are observed. In addition, 80% selective amplification and 40% suppression of one of the excitonic polarizations are realized.
