We show that the achievable potential depths can easily reach the meV and the trap frequencies the GHz regimes. For Rydberg excitons, we find that it is sufficient to consider only the shift of the band gap, whereas the excitonic binding energies remain almost unchanged.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2017-11-17T17:32:07.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "rydberg excitons", "strain traps", "waveguides", "excitonic binding energies remain", "ghz regimes" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
