Quantum interference between optical absorption processes can excite carriers with a polarized distribution in the Brillouin zone depending on properties of the incident optical fields. The polarized distribution of carriers introduces a current that can be controlled by the phases and polarizations of the incident optical fields. Here we study the quantum interference of two- and three-photon absorption processes in AlGaAs. We present theoretical predictions for carrier and current injection rates considering different frequencies, phases, and polarizations of the incident fields. We also discuss the important features that result from only nonlinear optical processes being involved, which leads, for instance, to a sharper distribution of carriers in the Brillouin zone.
