Abstract.

We show that the order of energies of negative (X−) and positive (X+) trions in quantum wires is determined by the relative electron and hole lateral confinements. For equal electron and hole confinement, X+ has a larger binding energy, but a small imbalance towards a stronger hole localization changes the order of the X− and X+ recombination lines in the photoluminescence spectrum.
