“…[23][24][25][26] Thermal escape can be also investigated attending to the nature of the particles being promoted to a higher energy state. 14 Depending on the model, the correlated (excitonic escape), 6,8,10,12,23 the uncorrelated electron-hole pair (ambipolar escape), 4,9,14 or just one of the carriers (unipolar escape) 15 can be considered. Whether one or the other is appropriate in a particular sample depends on the barrier height and therefore might vary for QDs of given composition but different size.…”
