Semiclassical quantum theory show that this relationship is unfortunately not strictly exact. These results are confirmed by a variational calculation, which provides upper bounds for the critical screening lengths in the case $l \geq 1$.3 pages; OECS7 conference, Montpellier, France (September 3-7, 2001)Materials Sciencetext
