Quantum dot infrared photodetectors (QDIPs) have made significant progress after their
early demonstration about a decade ago. We review the progress made by QDIP technology …

Physics at the nanoscale has emerged as a field where discoveries of fundamental physical
effects lead to a greater understanding of the solid state. Additionally, the field is believed to …

This new edition of Infrared and Terahertz Detectors provides a comprehensive overview of
infrared and terahertz detector technology, from fundamental science to materials and …

This review seeks to extend the scope of both the experimental and theoreticalwork carried
out since I completed my 1993 review on the electronic, optical, andto a lesser extent, the …

The band structures and effective masses of III-V semiconductors (InP, InAs, InSb, GaAs, and
GaSb) are calculated using the GW method, the Heyd, Scuseria, and Ernzerhof hybrid …

Core/shell semiconductor nanocrystals with InAs cores were synthesized and characterized.
III− V semiconductor shells (InP and GaAs), and II− VI semiconductor shells (CdSe, ZnSe …

We present a pseudopotential approach to the calculation of the excitonic spectrum of
semiconductor quantum dots. Starting from a many-body expansion of the exciton wave …

We adopt an atomistic pseudopotential description of the electronic structure of self-
assembled, lens-shaped InAs quantum dots within the “linear combination of bulk bands” …

We present a theory of the electronic structure of GaN/AlN quantum dots (QD's), including
built-in strain and electric-field effects. A Green's function technique is developed to …

Self-assembled quantum dots are often modeled by continuum models (effective mass or k∙
p) that assume the symmetry of the dot to be that of its overall geometric shape. Lens …
