AbstractWe have investigated exciton states in wurtzite GaN/AlN and ZnO quantum dots. A strong piezoelectric field in GaN/AlN quantum dots is found to tilt conduction and valence bands, thus pushing the electron to the top and the hole to the bottom of the GaN/AlN quantum dot. As a result, the exciton ground state energy in GaN/AlN quantum dots with heights larger than 3 nm exhibits a red shift with respect to bulk GaN energy gap. It is shown that the radiative decay time in GaN/AlN quantum dots is large and increases from 0.3 ns for quantum dots with height 1.5 nm to 1.1×103 ns for the quantum dots with height 4.5 nm. On the contrary, the electron and the hole are not separated in ZnO quantum dots. Moreover, a relatively thick “dead layer” is formed near the surface of ZnO quantum dots. As a result, the radiative decay time in ZnO quantum dots is small and decreases from 73 ps for quantum dots with diameter 1.5 nm to 29 ps for the quantum dots with diameter 6 nm.
