Description

The binding energies and other properties of the excitonic complexes (bound systems of electrons and holes) in two and three dimensions (2D and 3D) are calculated by a precise variational method. The mass ratios for the limit of the stability of X3+(eehhh) are determined in both 2D and 3D cases. Two excited states of the biexciton are found to remain bound for any mass ratio. copyright 1999 The American Physical Society
