High-density semiconductor quantum dot (QD) assembly is a promising system to generate ultrashort radiation of superfluorescence (SF) which is a cooperative emission of many coherent excited particles induced by an interaction with a resonant radiation field. In this paper, we report the superfluorescent spectra and time profiles of biexcitons in CuCl QDs where a complete population inversion between the biexciton and exciton states was achieved by resonant two-photon excitation of biexcitons. A spontaneous emission at low excitation density changed to SF by increasing the excitation density. For a high excitation density, superfluorescent characteristics, i.e., narrowing of the pulse width and shortening of the delay time, were observed. Furthermore, broadening of the spectral width was observed, resulting from the enhancement of radiative rate of QD assembly. On the other hand, the SF at low temperature changed to an amplified spontaneous emission with the increase in temperature due to the increase in ...
