Abstract

A theory of interaction of the electromagnetic field with one-particle electron and positron Coulomb states emerging in nanopores of semiconductors is developed. It is established using the dipole approximation that the oscillator strengths of the transitions and the dipole moments of one-particle electron and positron states in nanopores assume giant values considerably exceeding the typical values of the corresponding quantities for semiconductors.
