1 | Mattis, Daniel C. | What is the effective mass of an exciton? | In the effective-mass approximation, the mass M* of an exciton is just the sum of the electron and hole masses, me*+ mh*. However, the effective-mass approximation is invalid if the forces are strong. Here we derive a plausible formula for the n th bound state of the exciton: Mn*= (me* + mh*) / (... | Kinetic; Energy; Electron | 1984 |
