Properties of Weak-Coupling Magnetopolaron in Cylinderical Quantum Dot
With the development of molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) technology and metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) technology
there has been great interest in investigating quantum dot both in material science and condensed state physics field. Due to size of quantum dot was small
they had a series of new and serious character
for example
quantum size effect
quantum coherent effect
quantum tunnel effect
coulomb resistance effect and surface effect
etc
.
these had brought infinite chance and hope on development and use of new materials. Especially
electron in quantum dot was subject to a strong three-dimension (3D) confinement
so that quantum effect was quite different from those of the bulk materials
these would brought about great society benefit and economic benefit. So many scientists has been investigating properties of quantum dots. Zhu J L
et al
. studied the properties of spherical quantum dot by using a few bodies method
results indicated that binding energy of donor state had depended on shape
dimension and confined potential of the quantum dots. Charrour R
et al
. studied the ground state binding energy of hydrogenic impurity in cylindrical quantum dot that subjected to external strong magnetic field by using the variational procedure and considering an infinite confined potential on all surface of the system. They found that the impurity binding energy depended strongly on the impurity position
magnetic field strength and the dot size(radius and height). Zhou H Y and Gu Shiwei had studied the properties of strong-coupling magnetopolaron in a disk-shape quantum dot
they pointed that the ground state energy and the excited state energy depended on resonance frequency and confined strength. The properties of magnetopolaron with electron-LO-phonon weak-coupling in cylindrical quantum dot
which was in parabolic potential
were investigated by using the linear combination operator and unitary transformation methods. Numerical calculations for ZnS quantum dot indicated that the ground state energy increased with increa sing characteristic frequency and cyclotron-resonance frequency
since vibration energy increased with increasing characteristic frequency and additional energy in external magnetic field increased with increasing cyclotron-resonance frequency
the energy of magnetiopolaron changed position from negative when characteristic frequency(or cyclotron-resonance frequency) increased to the value
for example
which was 0.27ω
LO
for the case of cylinder height L =20 nm and cyclotron resonance frequency ω
c
=0.5ω
LO
(or ω
c
was 0.5ω
LO
for the case of L=20 nm and characteristic frequency ω
0
=0.27ω
LO
). The ground state energy increased with increasing cylinder height
the smaller cylinder height was
the faster it increased
the energy of magnetopolaron also changed positive from negative when cylinder height decreased to 33.1 nm for the case of ω
c
=ω
0
=0.5ω
LO
. In short
ground state energy of bounding magnetopolaron in cylindrical quantum dot had something to do with size of quantum dot
external magnetic field and characteristic frequency.
