“…However, with respect to ZB NPLs, the quantum confinement direction is along [100], so the 1hh-1e exciton originates from the 4p (x,y),Se → 5s Cd transition, while the 1lh-1e exciton results from the 4p (x,y,z),Se → 5s Cd transition (Figure 5e). 59 As a result, the upward and downward tendencies of CD peaks are opposite between 1hh-1e and 1lh-1e transitions due to their different polarization transitions. Moreover, because the 1SO state has the same symmetry with the 1lh state, the 1SO-1e exciton would show the same transition polarization with 1lh-1e exciton (Figure 5e,f).…”
