The Electronic Structure of Semiconductor Nanocrystals
Abstract
▪ Abstract We review the rapid progress made in our understanding of the crystal properties of semiconductors and nanocrystals focussing on theoretical results obtained within the multiband effective mass approximation. A comparison with experiment shows these results are valid for nanocrystals down 22–26 Å in diameter. The effect of the electron-hole Coulomb interaction on the optical spectra is analyzed. A theory of the quantum–size levels in wide gap (CdSe) and narrow gap semiconductors (InAs) is presented that describes the absorption spectra of these semiconductors well. A great enhancement of the electron-hole exchange interaction leads to the formation of the optically forbidden Dark Exciton in nanocrystals, which strongly affects their photoluminescence. A theory of the band-edge exciton fine structure is presented and applied to the study of the PL in CdSe nanocrystals. The effect of doping on nanocrystal spectra is considered. The enhancement of the short–range spin-spin interaction in Mn-doped nanocrystals leads to a giant splitting of the electron and hole spin sublevels.

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.
