Abstract

This review focuses on the studies and computations of few-body systems of electrons and holes in condensed matter physics. We analyze and illustrate the application of a variety of methods for description of two- three- and four-body excitonic complexes such as an exciton, trion and biexciton in three-, two- and one-dimensional configuration spaces in various types of materials. We discuss and analyze the contributions made over the years to understanding how the reduction of dimensionality affects the binding energy of excitons, trions and biexcitons in bulk and low dimensional semiconductors and address the challenges that still remain.
