Luminescence Properties of Excitons in The Asymmetric Coupled Quantum Dots under Electric Fields
We theoretically analyzed the bonding and anti-bonding energy states in the GaAs/Al
0.35
Ga
0.65
As asymmetric coupled quantum dots under a series of electric fields. The carrier tunneling effect strongly influences the exciton energy and oscillator strength.We find that energy splitting of anti-crossing occurs under an critical electric field for hole bounding and anti-bonding states
and both the energy gap and the critical field decrease with increasing the barrier distance. Meanwhile
the exciton luminescence intensity changes from bright(dark) to dark(bright) under external fields.
