Hydrogenic impurities in graded GaAs–(Ga,Al)As quantum-well wires in an electric field
نویسندگان
چکیده
The electric field dependence of polarizability and binding energy of shallow-donor impurities in graded quantumwell wires is calculated by a variational method and in the effective-mass approximation. We have considered a finite confinement model and the results are compared with that of infinite confinement potential. Our calculations have revealed the dependence of the impurity binding and polarizability on the field direction in the graded quantum-well wire. r 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

The effect of first order magnetic field in a GaAs/AlAs spherical quantum dot with hydrogenic impurity
In this research, the effect of the first order magnetic field on the ground-state of a centered hydrogenic donor impurity in a GaAs/AlAs spherical quantum dot has been calculated. The perturbation method has been used within the framework of effective mass approximation for these calculations. Overall, the analysis shows that a proper choice of quantum dot radius and magnetic field can signifi...

متن کاملHydrogenic Impurity in Ridge Quantum Wire
The binding energies as well as wave functions of hydrogenic impurities located in V-groove GaAs/AlxGa1−xAs quantum wires are calculated for different positions of the impurity inside the wires. The variational method is used and the carrier ground states are analytically calculated by an effective potential scheme together with a suitable coordinate transformation that allows the decoupling of...

Theoretical calculations on the influence of both an external electric field and hydrostatic stress on the binding energy and impurity polarizability of shallowdonor impurities in an isolated GaAs–(Ga, Al)As quantum well are presented. A variational procedure within the effective-mass approximation is considered. The pressure-related –X crossover is taken into account. As a general feature, we ...
متن کاملPolaron effects on the energy of a hydrogenic donor impurity in GaAs-(Ga, Al)As quantum-well wires
In this work using the effective-mass approximation within a variational approach we study the effect of the 3D longitudinal optical phonons on the energy of a shallow donor impurity in a GaAs–(Ga,Al)As quantum-well wire with a magnetic field applied in the wireaxis direction. We obtain the energy of the lower impurity states as a function of the wire radius, the donor position inside the wire,...
