Abstract
We have studied the relaxation dynamics of excitons and exciton complexes in a single quantum dot using time-resolved photoluminescence. To avoid any interference of carrier diffusion and trapping we have excited the dot with energies below that of the wetting layer. The times extracted from a quantitative analysis are thus related only to the relaxation of carriers inside the dot. Since the dot is rather large it is possible to observe the recombination of carriers from different atomic shells. We observe a retardation of the carrier relaxation increasing excitation power due to the large number of charges filling the dot.
