    Excitons in type-II quantum dots: Finite offsets

    Full text link
    Quantum size effects for an exciton attached to a spherical quantum dot are calculated by a variational approach. The band line-ups are assumed to be type-II with finite offsets. The dependence of the exciton binding energy upon the dot radius and the offsets is studied for different sets of electron and hole effective masses
