.Effective mass of the ground state of the strong-coupling exciton in a quantum well[J].Optoelectronics Letters,2009,5(2):154-157 Effective mass of the ground state of the strong-coupling exciton in a quantum well 额尔敦朝鲁  辛伟 Institute of Condensed Matter Physics, Hebei Normal University of Science & Technology, Qinhuangdao 066004, China ? Abstract:       The properties of the effective mass of the ground state of the exciton, for which the electron (hole) is strongly coupled with interface-optical (IO) phonons but weakly coupled with bulk-longitudinal-optical (LO) phonons in a quantum well, are studied by means of Tokuda's improved linear combination operator and a modified second Lee-Low-Pines transformation method. The results indicate that the contributions of the interaction between the electron (hole) and the different phonon branches to the effective mass are greatly different, and change with the well width and the relative position between the electron and the hole.
