Abstract
Binding energies of the heavy hole and light hole exciton in a quantum well with Pöschl–Teller (PT) potential composed of GaAs have been studied variationally within effective mass approximation. The effects of pressure and temperature on exciton binding energy are analyzed individually and also simultaneously for symmetric and asymmetric configuration of the well. The results show that exciton binding energy (i) decreases as the well width increases, (ii) increases with pressure and (iii) decreases with temperature. Simultaneous effects of these perturbations lead to more binding of the exciton. The results are compared with the existing literature.
