Trion X+ in vertically coupled type II quantum dots in threading magnetic field
We analyze the energy spectrum of a positively charged exciton confined in a semiconductor heterostructure formed by two vertically coupled, axially symmetrical type II quantum dots located close to each other. The electron in the structure is mainly located inside the dots, while the holes generally move in the exterior region close to the symmetry axis. The solutions of the Schrödinger equati...
متن کاملStark effect on the exciton spectra of vertically coupled quantum dots: Horizontal field orientation and nonaligned dots
We study the effect of an electric field on an electron-hole pair in an asymmetric system of vertically coupled self-assembled quantum dots taking into account their nonperfect alignment. We show that the nonperfect alignment does not qualitatively influence the exciton Stark effect for the electric field applied in the growth direction, but can be detected by application of a perpendicular ele...
متن کاملCharge transfer magnetoexciton formation at vertically coupled quantum dots
A theoretical investigation is presented on the properties of charge transfer excitons at vertically coupled semiconductor quantum dots in the presence of electric and magnetic fields directed along the growth axis. Such excitons should have two interesting characteristics: an extremely long lifetime and a permanent dipole moment. We show that wave functions and the low-lying energies of charge...
متن کاملEnhancement of Charge Transfer and Quenching of Photoluminescence of Capped CdS Quantum Dots
Quantum dots (Q-dots) of cadmium sulfide (CdS) with three different capping ligands, 1-butanethiol (BT), 2-mercaptoethanol (ME) and benzyl mercaptan (BM) have been investigated. An external electric field of variable strength of 0.2-1.0 MV cm(-1) was applied to the sample of capped CdS Q-dots doped in a poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) films. Field-induced changes in optical absorption of cappe...
متن کاملCoulomb-interaction driven anomaly in the Stark effect for an exciton in vertically coupled quantum dots
The effect of the electric field on an exciton confined in a pair of vertically coupled quantum dots is studied. We use a single-band approximation and a parabolic model potential. As a result of these idealizations, we obtain a numerically solvable model, which is used to describe the influence of the electron–hole interaction on the Stark effect for the lowestenergy photoluminescence lines. W...
