Many-Particle Effects in the Optical Excitations of a Semiconductor
Abstract
We present (a) a general formulation of the electron-hole interaction which takes into account both screened electron-hole attraction and its exchange counterpart, giving rise to the excitonic and local-field effects, respectively; (b) a quantitative calculation of absorption and modulation spectrum in Si, which demonstrates the dominant role played by the continuum-exciton effect on the main optical absorption of a covalent semiconductor; and (c) a model analysis of the continuum-excitonic effect on the optical excitations of semiconductors in general.

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.
