Effect of Quantum and Dielectric Confinement on the Exciton−Exciton Interaction Energy in Type II Core/Shell Semiconductor Nanocrystals

Piryatinski, Andrei, Ivanov, Sergei A., Tretiak, Sergei, Klimov, Victor I.·2007·Nano Letters

Abstract

We study theoretically two electron-hole pair states (biexcitons) in core/shell hetero-nanocrystals with type II alignment of energy states, which promotes spatial separation of electrons and holes. To describe Coulomb interactions in these structures, we apply first-order perturbation theory, in which we use an explicit form of the Coulomb-coupling operator that takes into account interface-polarization effects. This formalism is used to analyze the exciton-exciton interaction energy as a function of the core and shell sizes and their dielectric properties. Our analysis shows that the combined contributions from quantum and dielectric confinement can result in strong exciton-exciton repulsion with giant interaction energies on the order of 100 meV. Potential applications of strongly interacting biexciton states include such areas as lasing, nonlinear optics, and quantum information.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
