Square Well

Using the potential morphing method within the finite depth square-well effective mass approximation, we calculate the exciton energy of narrow band gap colloidal PbS, PbSe, and InAs quantum dots, assuming a size dependent dielectric function. Concerning the behaviour of the effective band gap with the quantum dot radius, our theoretical results agree well with the experimental ones, in contrast with other theoretical models.

Band Gap Narrowing

The density-of-states effective mass approximation and the conduction-band effective mass approximation are employed to formulate carrier concentrations and the diffusivity-mobility relationship (DMR) for heavily doped n-semiconductors exhibiting band gap narrowing. These are very suitable for the investigation of electrical transport also in heavily doped p-semiconductors. Numerical calculations indicate that the DMR depends on a host of parameters including the temperature, carrier degeneracy, and the non-parabolicity of the band structure.
