Continuous absorption background and decoherence in quantum dots.

We consider theoretically the role of crossed transitions on the interband optical properties of quantum dots. These transitions, which involve one bound state and one delocalized state, are inherent to the joint nature of the valence-to-conduction density of states in quantum dots. We show that they play a crucial role both on the interband absorption and on the broadening of the quantum dot lines.

Correlation between shape and electronic states in nanostructures

We show how the electronic states of quantum wires and quantum dots can be evaluated exactly starting from the profile of the nanostructure observed by transmission electron microscopy, scanning tunneling microscopy and atomic force microscopy. The calculated quantization energies reproduce the energy position of the luminescence resonances in the optical spectra of different samples, without fitting parameters.
