Effective mass modelling of excitons in semiconductor nanocrystals

This thesis investigates the properties of exciton states in semiconductor nanocrystals using effective mass models. We focus on type-I core-shell nanocrystals in which the staggered band alignments of the core and shell material mean the lowest energy states for electrons and holes lie in different...
