Which change in behavior occurs when a semiconductor nanocrystal (quantum dot) reaches its exciton Bohr radius limit?

💡 Explanation

At the exciton Bohr radius limit, quantum confinement dominates, and therefore the bandgap widens because a smaller crystal size requires greater energy for electronic transitions, rather than other phenomena becoming prevalent.
