By combining an atomistic valence-force field approach and calculations based on the effective-mass approximation we investigate the influence of strain effects on the band alignment and general excitonic properties of core/shell CdSe/CdS…
We theoretically study the effect of the dielectric environment on the exciton ground state of CdSe and CdTe/CdSe/CdTe nanorods. We show that insulating environments enhance the exciton recombination rate and blueshift the emission peak by…
Colloidal semiconductor nanoplatelets combine weak lateral confinement with strong Coulomb interactions, enhanced by dielectric confinement. When the platelets are charged with carriers of the same sign, this results in severe Coulomb…
