    Analysis of the fine structure of the D‐exciton shell in cuprous oxide
    (2021) Heckötter, Julian; Rommel, Patric; Main, Jörg; Aßmann, Marc; Bayer, Manfred
    The exciton states in cuprous oxide show a pronounced fine structure splitting associated with the crystal environment and the resulting electronic band structure. High‐resolution spectroscopy reveals an especially pronounced splitting of the yellow D excitons with one state pushed above any other state with the same principal quantum number. This large splitting offset is related to a strong mixing of these D states with the 1S exciton of the green series, as suggested by previously published calculations. Here, a detailed comparison of this theory with experimental data is given, which leads to a complete reassignment of the experimentally observed D exciton lines. The origin of different amounts of green admixture to D‐envelope states is deduced by analyzing the different terms of the Hamiltonian. The yellow-green mixing leads to level repulsion and induces an exchange interaction splitting to D‐envelope states, from which one of them becomes the highest state within each multiplet. Furthermore, the assignment of D exciton states according to their total angular momentum F is given and corrects an earlier description given in a former study.

    Hydrogenic Rydberg atoms in strong magnetic fields: theoretical and experimental spectra in the transition region from regularity to irregularity
    (1987) Holle, Armin; Wiebusch, Gerd; Main, Jörg; Welge, Karl H.; Zeller, Gudrun; Wunner, Günter; Ertl, Thomas; Ruder, Hanns
    For deuterium Rydberg atoms in a magnetic field of sim6~T we compare the complete experimental spectrum in the range -190 cm-1 to -20 cm-1 with the positions and oscillator strengths of the corresponding quantum theoretically calculated photoabsorption lines. The agreement is excellent. The range of energy covered extends from the end of thel-mixing regime up to the regions where the approximate integrability of the problem is completely lost, and the corresponding classical system undergoes a transition to chaos.
