  1. We derive an effective spin-Hamiltonian accounting for the shape anisotropy of the zinc blende semiconductor nanocrystals within the k · p formalism explicitly taking into account the spin–orbit split-off valence band. It is shown that, for small InP nanocrystals, neglect of the spin–orbit split-off band can lead to significant underestimation of one of the two parameters determining the exciton fine-structure splittings. This parameter is only important for nanocrystals with shape anisotropy.

  2. We derive an effective spin-Hamiltonian accounting for the exciton fine structure in quasi-spherical zinc-blende semiconductor nanocrystals within the k · p formalism explicitly taking into account the spin-orbit split-off valence band. It is shown that, for excitons in nanocrystals made of III-V and II-VI semiconductors with fairly small spin-orbit splitting, the scaling of the electron-hole exchange interaction with the nanocrystal size insignificantly differs from the inverse nanocrystal volume law predicted within the model neglecting the spin-orbit split-off band. Numerical calculations are performed for InP nanocrystals.
