Abstract

In this paper, we have studied the effect of electron–phonon (e–p) interaction on the second harmonic generation (SHG) and third harmonic generation (THG) of modified Gaussian quantum dots within the framework of the compact density matrix approach and iterative method. We have obtained the energy eigenvalues and their corresponding eigenfunctions of the system without e–p interaction and under the influence of electron–LO phonon, electron–SO phonon, and electron–LO + SO phonon interaction. It is found that the effect of the electron–phonon interaction has a great influence on the second and third harmonic generation of the system. The effect of electron–SO phonon on the SHG and THG is greater than the electron–LO phonon. The electron–LO + SO-phonon interaction has the largest contribution to the SHG and THG.

Polaronic Electron-Phonon Interactions on the Third-Harmonic Generation in a Square Quantum Well

Zhi-En Lu, Guo Kang-Xian

The influence of electron-phonon interactions on third-harmonic generation in a square quantum well is investigated. The first- and third-harmonic generation coefficient is obtained by using compact-density-matrix approach and iterative method, and the numerical results are presented for a GaAs square quantum well. The results show that the third-harmonic generation coefficient is obviously enhanced after considering the influence of electron-phonon interactions.

OPTICAL PROPERTIES OF A GaAs PYRAMID QUANTUM DOT: SECOND- AND THIRD-HARMONIC GENERATION

Hossein Bahramiyan, Reza Khordad

In the present work, we have studied the second-harmonic generation (SHG) and third-harmonic generation (THG) in a pyramid quantum dot. For this purpose, we first obtain the energy levels and wavefunctions of this system. Then, we have used an analytic expression for the SHG and THG by a compact density matrix approach and an iterative procedure. The SHG and THG enhance and shift to lower energies by increasing the height (h) and vertex angle (φ). According to the results, it is found that the structural parameters have great influence on the SHG and THG of a pyramid quantum dot.

ELECTRON–PHONON INTERACTION EFFECTS ON THIRD-HARMONIC GENERATION IN CYLINDRICAL QUANTUM WIRES

Youbin Yu, Kangxian Guo

The influence of electron–phonon interaction on third-harmonic generation in cylindrical quantum wires are investigated. The third-harmonic generation coefficient is obtained using compact-density-matrix approach and iterative method, and the numerical results are presented for GaAs cylindrical quantum wires. The results show that the third-harmonic generation coefficient is greatly enhanced after taking into consideration the influence of electron–phonon interaction. It is about thirty times larger than that obtained by just considering electron states when electron–phonon resonance is met.

Second and third harmonic generation of asymmetrical Gaussian potential quantum dot

Ahmad Ghanbari, Raziyeh Birooni

Abstract In the current work, we have studied the second and third harmonic generation in asymmetrical Gaussian potential quantum dot subjected to the applied electric field. To do this, confined wave function together with energies of electron in an effective mass approximation framework were obtained. Apply these, the analytic expression for the second- and third harmonic generation are determined using a compact density matrix approach and an iterative procedure. According to the results, it is found that applying an electric field, enhances the peak values of the second- and third harmonic generation and redshifts the peak position of their spectrum. Our calculations indicate that increases the radius of quantum dot causes enhances the values of -harmonic generation and redshifts the peak positions of photon energy. It means by optimizing the confinement potential, the maximum –harmonic generation can be obtained. It should be noted that the structural parameters have a significant effect on the –harmonic generation in the considered system.
