Figure 17Ref. 11.)The size dependence of band-edge FLN/PLE spectra. (Adapted fromdicates that the model accurately reproduces many aspects of the data. Boththe splitting between jN m j = 2 and 1 L (the Stokes shift) and the splittingbetween 1 L and the upper states (1 U and 0 U ) are described reasonably well.Also, the predicted trend in the oscillator strength is observed. These agreementsare particularly significant because although the predicted structurestrongly depends on the theoretical input parameters [10], only literature valueswere used in the theoretical calculation.G. Evidence for the ‘‘Dark Exciton’’In addition to the observation that CdSe nanocrystals exhibit long emissionlifetimes, they also display other emission dynamics that point to the existenceof the dark exciton. For example, Fig. 19a shows how the emission decay of a<strong>Copyright</strong> <strong>2004</strong> <strong>by</strong> <strong>Marcel</strong> <strong>Dekker</strong>, <strong>Inc</strong>. <strong>All</strong> <strong>Rights</strong> <strong>Reserved</strong>.
