Taking into account the tetrahedral shape of a quantum dot quantum well (QDQW) when describing excitonic states, phonon modes and the exciton-phonon interaction in the structure, we obtain within a non-adiabatic approach a quantitative interpretation of the photoluminescence spectrum of a single CdS/HgS/CdS QDQW. We find that the exciton ground state in a tetrahedral QDQW is bright, in contrast to the dark ground state for a spherical QDQW. The position of the phonon peaks in the photoluminescence spectrum is attributed to interface optical phonons. We also show that the experimental value of the Huang-Rhys parameter can be obtained only within the nonadiabatic theory of phonon-assisted transitions.
