We studied monoatomic linear carbon chains stabilised by gold nanoparticles attached to their ends and deposited on a solid substrate. We observe spectral features of straight chains containing from 8 to 24 atoms. Low temperature PL spectra…
We report diffusion quantum Monte Carlo (DMC) calculations of the quasiparticle and excitonic gaps of hydrogen-terminated oligoynes and polyyne. The electronic gaps are found to be very sensitive to the atomic structure in these systems. We…
We calculate the radiative lifetime and energy bandstructure of excitons in semiconducting carbon nanotubes, within a tight-binding approach. In the limit of rapid interband thermalization, the radiative decay rate is maximized at…
The excitonic luminescence of an isolated polydiacetylene polymer chain in its monomer matrix is studied by micro-photoluminescence. These chains behave as perfect 1D excitonic systems with the expected 1/sqrt{E} density of states between 5…
In this work, we report on the exciton radiative lifetimes of graphitic carbon nitride monolayers in the triazine- (gC$_3$N$_4$-t) and heptazine-based (gC$_3$N$_4$-h) forms, as obtained by means of ground- plus excited-state ab initio…
We derive an energy-dependent decay-time distribution function from the multi-exponential decay of the ensemble photoluminescence (PL) of InGaN/GaN quantum dots (QDs), which agrees well with recently published single-QD time-resolved PL…
We develop a non-local dielectric response theory to describe the temperature dependence of exciton lifetime in metal-semiconductor heterostructures. Coupling between excitons and surface plasmons results in a strongly nonmonotonous…
Collective electronic excitations "excitons" in planar optical lattices exhibit strong modifications of the radiative damping rate and directional emission pattern as compared to a single excited atom. Excitons for long wave numbers and…
Recently, we have experimentally observed signatures of sharp exciton peaks in the photoluminescence spectra of bundles of monoatomic carbon chains stabilized by gold nanoparticles and deposited on a glass substrate. Here, we estimate the…
Using time correlated single photon counting combined with temperature dependent diffraction limited confocal photoluminescence spectroscopy we accurately determine, for the first time, the intrinsic radiative lifetime of single excitons…
A simple microscopic mechanism explaining the linear dependence of the radiative lifetime of free-moving two-dimensional excitons on their effective temperature is suggested. It is shown that there exists a characteristic effective…
We present theoretical analysis and first-principles calculation of the radiative lifetime of excitons in semiconducting carbon nanotubes. An intrinsic lifetime of the order of 10 ps is computed for the lowest optically active bright…
Atomically thin transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) are direct-gap semiconductors with strong light-matter and Coulomb interaction. The latter accounts for tightly bound excitons, which dominate the optical properties of these…
Optical responses of atomically thin 2D materials are greatly influenced by electron-hole interactions. It is by far established that exciton signatures can be well-identified in the optical absorption spectrum of quasi-2D materials.…
Spatially indirect excitons in semiconducting double quantum wells have been shown to exhibit rich collective many-body behavior that result from the nature of the extended dipole-dipole interactions between particles. For many…
We report optical studies of quantum dot excitons in individual suspended carbon nanotubes at cryogenic temperatures. Narrow optical linewidths, strongly suppressed spectral wandering, and photoluminescence lifetimes in the range of…
Quantum confinement profoundly affects the properties and interactions of electrons, holes, and excitons in nanomaterials. We apply first-principles calculations to study the effects of extreme quantum confinement on the electronic,…
Exciton dynamics dictate the evolution of photoexcited carriers in photovoltaic and optoelectronic devices. However, interpreting their experimental signatures is a challenging theoretical problem due to the presence of both electron-phonon…
Long linear carbon-chains have been attracting intense interest arising from the remarkable properties predicted and their potential applications in future nanotechnology. Here we comprehensively interrogate the excitonic transitions and…
Absorption and emission of pristine-like semiconducting monolayers of BN, AlN, GaN, and InN are here systematically studied by ab-initio methods. We calculate the absorption spectra for in-plane and out-of-plane light polarization including…
