Auger release of a deeply trapped carrier in a quantum dot — •Thomas Hartmann1, Peter Reineker1, and Vladimir I. Yudson21Abteilung Theoretische Physik, Universität Ulm, 89069 Ulm — 2Institute for Spectroscopy, Russian Academy of Sciences, Troitsk, Moscow region, 142190, Russia

For a quantum dot (QD) we have studied the transiton between the dark and the bright states on the basis of an Auger-induced release process of an electron deeply trapped in a QD shell. The importance of this release process mechanism in connection with the dark state termination has not been noticed before. The considered release mechanism originates from an elcectron-hole pair which is created by light irradiation and whose energy - after recombination - is transferred to the trapped electron via a Förster-like mechansism ∼ 1/r06, where r0 is the distance between the QD center and the trap in the shell. The spatial distribution of deep traps over the QD results in a distribution of "off-times". For a homogeneous spatial distribution of traps and a Förster-like dependence of the trapping probability, the distribution of the "off-times" follows a power law ∼ 1/toff3/2 with the exponent 3/2 observed experimentally in many QDs.
