Attractive electron correlation in wide band gap semiconductors by electron–photon interaction

We theoretically demonstrate attractive electron correlation in wide band gap semiconductors by electron–photon interaction. At low temperature, wavevectors of electromagnetic waves absorbed in wide band gap semiconductors cannot be neglected for wavevectors of electron waves; that is, electromagnetic waves affect the movements of electrons. In particular, attractive interaction occurs between two electrons when one electron changes from a valence band to a conduction band and the other electron changes from a conduction band to a valence band.
