This review summarizes the results of theoretical studies of an excitons and quasimolecules
(biexcitons) formed from spatially separated electrons and holes (the hole is in the
semiconductor spherical quantum dot volume, and the electron is localized at the outer
spherical surface of the quantum dot–dielectric matrix interface.
Keywords: excitons, biexcitons, quasimolecules, semiconductor (dielectric) quantum dots,
binding energy of excitons, nanolaser.
