The 21 pages that link to Exciton, each with the reason it gives.

• Band gapRelated: Exciton creation energies can lie below the energy needed for free carriers across the gap.

• PhotochemistryRelated: Exciton transport and dissociation can determine whether absorbed light drives useful chemistry.

• PhotoluminescenceRelated: Excitons often serve as the emitting excited states in semiconductors.

• Quantum dotRelated: Optical absorption and emission create or annihilate excitons in a quantum dot.

• Electron–hole pairCompared with: Unlike a free electron–hole pair, an exciton remains Coulomb-bound.

• Excited stateBroader topic: Excitons are collective electronic excited states central to many optical materials.

• Zinc oxideRelated: ZnO’s relatively large exciton binding energy supports excitonic effects near room temperature.

• Quantum wellRelated: Confinement strengthens electron–hole interactions and changes exciton energies.

• ElectroluminescenceRelated: Exciton recombination can produce light in organic and other semiconductors.

• Quantum confinementRelated: Electron–hole interactions modify optical transitions in confined structures.

• Color centerCompared with: An exciton is an electron–hole pair, not charge trapped at a crystal defect.

• QuasiparticleBroader topic: It behaves as a mobile quasiparticle in semiconductors and insulators.

• AnthraceneRelated: Excitations in anthracene crystals can migrate before emitting light or being quenched.

• Perovskite solar cellRelated: Photon absorption creates excited charge states that must separate for current to flow.

• OLEDRelated: Electron–hole pairs form excited states whose decay can produce OLED light.

• Rydberg atomCompared with: Excitons can be large and field-sensitive, but they occur in materials rather than isolated atoms.

• PolaronCompared with: An exciton is dressed by binding two charges together, rather than by a carrier-induced lattice distortion.

• PlasmonCompared with: An exciton is a bound pair, while a plasmon is a collective charge-density mode.

• Band structure methodsRelated: Electron–hole attraction shifts optical features beyond independent-electron band predictions.

• Ultrafast laser spectroscopyRelated: Ultrafast spectroscopy follows exciton formation, transport, and recombination.

• Valence and conduction bandsRelated: Electron-hole interactions can modify optical behavior near the band edge.
