摘要
We present a theoretical study of excitons in GaN/AlxGa1-xN wurtzite (0001) quantum wells subjected to hydrostatic pressure. Our results show that the combined effect of pressure induced changes in band structure and piezoelectric field leads to reduction of the exciton binding energy. This subtle effect is described quite accurately by our multiband model of excitons in quantum wells.
