Ground State Binding Energy of Strong Coupling Polaron in a Infinite Quantum Well
With the development of the growth techniques of the semiconductor

quantum well and superlattice have been prepared
which is the great breach in Semiconductor physics and material science.The problem of confined electron in a quantum well(QW) has attracted much interest from physicists in recent years. Zhao

In this paper

of the strong-coupling polaron were discussed by using a linear-combination-operator and variational method. Numerical calculation (illustrates) that the vibration frequency and ground state binding energy of strong-coupling polaron in an infinite quantum well will decrease with increasing well width L and increase with increasing the coupling strength α;the ground state energy will decrease with increasing L and its absolute value will increase with increasing coupling strength α; our results approach those of 2D and 3D polarons respectively in the limits of small and large well width L.
