Fundamental Absorption of Semiconductor Quantum Dots PDF

This Spotlight describes the process of fundamental absorption in a variety of quantum dot (QD) geometries, such as spherical, cylindrical, ellipsoidal, lens-shaped, conical, and spherical layered, including in the presence of external fields. Other topics include the effect of exciton effects on the interband absorption coefficients and the application of QD ensembles in QD-LED devices. The mathematics involved is presented with as much detail as possible, and readers need only be familiar with semiconductor physics and quantum mechanics.
