Tight-binding theory of ZnS/CdS nanoscale heterostructures: Role of strain and d orbitals

Tight-binding theory of ZnS/CdS nanoscale heterostructures: Role of strain and d orbitals (2006)

This publication contributes to atomistic theory of semiconductor nanostructures and their electronic or optical properties. It emphasizes realistic material, structural, or many-body effects beyond simplified textbook models.

Keywords: atomistic theory, quantum dots

Main result: realistic atomistic modeling is necessary to capture key electronic or optical features of these nanostructures.
