✦ Synopsis

Size-selective spectroscopic techniques and a tight-binding calculation with restricted configuration interaction are used to study the recombination and the relaxation of excitons in CdS quantum dots. The optical absorption spectrum is calculated and is found to be close to the experiments. The analysis of the luminescence shows that an emission of light corresponding to transitions between quantum confined states is obtained only in QDs larger than 3 nm. The exciton levels are compared with those given by simple effective mass approximation. The photoluminescence excitation spectra suggest that for upper exciton levels non-radiative captures of the carrier may become competitive compared to relaxation processes.

Radiative and non-radiative recombination processes of excitons were studied in quantum dots (QDs) of Cd 1--x Mn x Se. The recombination processes of excitons in the QDs were highly affected by external magnetic fields and the optical excitation power. The short lifetime of QD excitons at zero magne

It is known experimentally that stable charged-exciton complexes can exist in low-dimensional semiconductor nanostructures. Much less is known about the properties of such charged-exciton complexes since three-body problems are very difficult to solve, even numerically. Here we introduce the correla
