摘要
Spectral diffusion is an effect often observed in epitaxially grown II-VI quantum dots. It is shown that in such structures spectral diffusion is caused by electric fields generated from charges on the sample surface. The interaction mechanism is a linear quantum-confined Stark effect revealing an electric dipole moment of the zero-dimensional multi-exciton states in the quantum dot. The dipole length of all the observed multi-exciton states is almost the same suggesting a negligible correlation of the electron and hole wave functions caused by a strong vertical confinement.
