Transformation from Type- Ⅱ to Type- Ⅰ Excitons in Spherical Core-shell Quantum Dots
The excitons in the spherical semiconductor core-shell quantum dots embedded in an insulator matrix were studied theoretically in a simplified model within the framework of effective mass approximation by using the variational approach. The calculations for the values of the wave functions as functions of coordinate
and the critical potential as functions of the ratio of shell width to core radius were performed numerically
respectively. It was found that there exists a critical potential for a given ratio of the shell width to core radius
when the potential decreases cross this critical value the exciton transforms from a type- Ⅱ exciton into a type- Ⅰ exciton. For a given potential
there exists a critical ratio of the shell width to core radius
when this ratio decreases cross this critical value the exciton transforms from a type- Ⅱ exciton into a type- Ⅰ exciton. The essential features were clarified
which may serve as a starting point for the analysis of excitons in real materials.
