Abstract
The recombination energy of isolated neutral exciton and that of isolated negatively charged exciton inside a type-II core/shell spherical quantum dot are studied. Our investigation considers the charge-carriers effective mass discontinuity at the surface contact between the core and shell materials. Although our model omits the effect of the surface polarization, the dielectric-constant mismatch at the nanodot boundaries was taken into account. In order to achieve the exciton and negative trion energies, we proceed by a variational calculation in the framework of the envelope approximation. Our results reveal a strong correlation between the nanodot morphology and the energy spectrum of the neutral and negatively charged exciton.
