Abstract
The influence of quantum dot (QD) asymmetry on the emission of single three-dimensionally confined biexcitons in II-VI semiconductor nanostructures has been studied by magnetophotoluminescence spectroscopy. Investigating both the biexciton and the single-exciton transition in the same single QD, we obtain a unified picture of the impact of electron-hole exchange interaction on the fine structure and the polarization properties of optical transitions in QDs. The exchange splitting is demonstrated to have a strong influence on the derivation of the biexciton binding energy, which we determine to be about 17 meV, much less than the separation between exciton and biexciton lines ( $\ensuremath{\approx}24$ meV) in the spectra.
