Abstract

Recent advances in the field of modulation spectroscopy are discussed. Optical spectra obtained by means of electric field, stress, temperature, wavelength, incident light, and other types of modulation, are presented. These results are interpreted in terms of one-electron band structures, exciton effects, and the effect of the modulating perturbation on band structures and excitons.
