Silicon Nanocrystals: Fundamental Theory and Implications for Stimulated Emission

Figure 12

Density plot of the probability distribution 𝜌_env(𝐫) of all the six doublets at ℎ/𝑅=0.1 (upper images), and ℎ/𝑅=0.46 (lower images) for NCs containing a hydrogenic acceptor. The acceptor position is indicated with a red point. (a): ground state; (b) to (f): first to fifth excited states. For each state the hole density is normalized to its maximum in the state, and rises from dark to light. The nanocrystal boundary is marked by the yellow circle, with 𝑅=1.5 nm.
