The exciton Bohr radius is a defining feature in conventional quantum dot physics. Three distinct confinement regimes are usually recognized: the weak, intermediate, and strong regimes. Which of these relevant depends on relative size terms radius. However, this classification primarily based linear optical properties nanocrystal. During transition from molecule to bulk crystal, structural, mechanical, thermal, chemical change as well. In review, we discuss cluster regime, where experiences extreme confinement. not only do deviate significantly effective mass approximation, but other material also begin their values. These deviations observable intrinsic length scales much smaller than Crucially, computational methods allow chemists explore region far more quantitatively past.
