tection window, E det , was set to 1.18 eV corresponding to a radius of f2.2 nmand a set of up to eight transitions are resolved (Fig. 5). The full-size dependencewas measured <strong>by</strong> changing the detection window and <strong>by</strong> usingdifferent samples. A representative set of such PLE spectra is shown in Fig. 6.Figure 7 shows the map of excited transitions for InAs nanocrystalsextracted from the PLE data, plotted relative to and as a function of thebandgap transition. The left panel compares the observed transitions withthose calculated within the eight-band effective mass model. Briefly, in thisapproach, each electron (e) and each hole (h) state is characterized <strong>by</strong> itsparity and its total angular momentum F = J+L, where J is the Bloch bandedgeangular momentum (1/2 for the CB, 3/2 for the heavy and light holebands, and 1/2 for the split-off band) and L is the angular momentumassociated with the envelope function. We use the standard notation for theFigure 6 Size-dependent PLE spectra for four representative InAs QD radii. Thebandgap transition (a) and two strong excited transitions (b, c) are indicated.<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>.
