23. Generally, the infinite barrier approximation is not a very good one since the absorption edge of the used glass is about 350 nm, corresponding to an energy of ∼3.5 eV. Additionally, the finite height of the potential barrier for the carriers localized in semiconductor QDs have to be accounted for.
