Exciton binding energy in quantum wells
Abstract
Variational calculations are presented of the ground exciton state in quantum wells. For the GaAs-GaAlAs system, the results obtained from a trial wave function not separable in spatial coordinates are shown to be valid throughout the entire well-thickness range, corresponding in the thin and thick limits to two- and three-dimensional situations, respectively. For the InAs-GaSb system, in which electrons and holes are present in spatially separated regions, the exciton binding is substantially reduced. In the limit of thin wells, the binding energy is only about one-fourth of the two-dimensional value.

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.
