An exciton is a bound state of an electron and an electron hole which are attracted to each other by the electrostatic Coulomb force resulting from their opposite charges.

exciton, the combination of an electron and a positive hole (an empty electron state in a valence band), which is free to move through a nonmetallic crystal as a unit. Because the electron and …

Mar 10, 2014 · When a chlorophyll molecule in the leaf of a plant absorbs a photon of sunlight, the solar energy is converted into an excited state of the molecule known as an exciton. The …

An exciton is defined as a bound electron-hole pair that arises within the bandgap of a material, characterized by a binding energy equal to the difference between the bandgap energy and …

We will investigate some of these features, focusing on the delocalized eigenstates of these coupled chromophores, known as excitons. These principles apply to the study of molecular …

In some applications it is useful to consider electronic excitation as if a quasi-principle, capable of migrating, were involved. This is termed as exciton. In organic materials two models are used: …

Excitons are quasi-particles made up of bound electron and hole pairs. Having a clear understanding of exciton theory is essential in order to understand semiconductor behaviour. …

When a chlorophyll molecule in the leaf of a plant absorbs a photon of sunlight, the solar energy is converted into an excited state of the molecule known as an exciton. The exciton then …

Sep 10, 2018 · Here, we review their optical and optoelectronic properties with emphasis on exciton physics and devices. As excitons are tightly bound in these materials and dominate the …

Feb 3, 2023 · Optical band-to-band absorption can produce an electron and a hole in close proximity which attract each other via Coulomb interaction and can form a hydrogen-like bond …
