Strain in lattice-mismatched CdSe-based core/shell nanoplatelets

J Llusar, J Planelles, JI Climente - The Journal of Physical …, 2019 - ACS Publications
We investigate the role of stress arising between core and shell materials in colloidal
CdSe/X hetero-nanoplatelets (X= ZnS, CdS, CdTe). The resulting strain distribution is …

Electrically tunable hole factor of an optically active quantum dot for fast spin rotations

JH Prechtel, F Maier, J Houel, AV Kuhlmann, A Ludwig… - Physical Review B, 2015 - APS
We report a large g factor tunability of a single hole spin in an InGaAs quantum dot via an
electric field. The magnetic field lies in the in-plane direction x, the direction required for a …

Optical exciton Aharonov-Bohm effect, persistent current, and magnetization in semiconductor nanorings of type I and II

M Grochol, F Grosse, R Zimmermann - Physical Review B, 2006 - APS
Abstract The optical exciton Aharonov-Bohm effect—ie, an oscillatory component in the
energy of optically active (bright) states—is investigated in nanorings. It is shown that a small …

Impurity effects on the Aharonov-Bohm optical signatures of neutral quantum-ring magnetoexcitons

L Dias da Silva, SE Ulloa, AO Govorov - Physical Review B—Condensed …, 2004 - APS
We study the role of impurity scattering on the photoluminescence (PL) emission of
polarized magnetoexcitons. We consider systems where both the electron and hole are …
