Abstract

Confinement effects of Kratzer potential on a Wannier-Mott Exciton(W-M) are studied in a spherical quantum dot(QD) in the presence of a static magnetic field. Time independent Schr$\ddot{o}$dinger equation is solved numerically to obtain the energy states. The excitonic transitions so realized have been used to explore the non-linear optical properties that are important for optical characterization of materials such as the optical absorption coefficients (ACs) and refractive index changes (RICs). Impact of magnetic field, strength of the laser field and transition parameters using familiar compact density matrix approach are also analyzed. It has been observed that optical properties get radically modified under confinement effects. Also, the shift of degeneracy of different excitonic energy levels with the magnetic field in confinement potential has been reported for the first time for W-M exciton in the spherical quantum dot, the study that may have crucial input to the literature and myriad of practical implications.

Study of optical properties of Wannier-Mott exciton in spherical quantum dot in Kratzer potential

Varsha, Poonam Silotia, Vinod Prasad

Nanostructures such as quantum dot, quantum ring, quantum wires are the newly emerging fields of research nowadays due to their commendable optical, electronic and thermal properties. Wannier-Mott (W-M) exciton is studied in different crystal types explaining their coupling and hybridization capabilities. Kratzer potential is the most discussed potential in atomic and molecular physics. Here, we have studied the effect of the size of the quantum dot on energy levels of W-M exciton. Also, using a laser beam, we have studied the optical properties like linear and non-linear absorption coefficients and refractive index changes of the W-M exciton in Kratzer potential.

Effects of the Magnetic Field on the Linear and Nonlinear Optical Absorption Coefficients and the Refractive Index Changes in a Spherical Quantum Dot

Muharrem Kırak, Sait Yılmaz, Mustafa Gençaslan

The linear and third-order nonlinear optical absorption coefficients (ACs) and the refractive index change (RIC) for a spherical quantum dot, having a hydrogenic impurity under an applied magnetic field have been theoretically studied. In numerical calculations, a variational scheme is adopted within effective mass approximation to determine the energy eigenvalues for the impurtiy. The variations of impurity binding energy with the dot radius, the linear and nonlinear ACs and RIC with the photon energy are investigated and effect of homogeneous magnetic field strength is discussed on these optical properties. It has been found that the binding energy, ACs and RIC are sensitively dependent on the magnetic field strength. Moreover, the calculated results also indicate that the absorption peak energies move to higher energies with increasing magnetic field.

Dependence of nonlinear optical properties on electrostatic interaction in an excitonic parabolic quantum dot in a static magnetic field

Monica Gambhir, Vinod Prasad

The linear and the third-order nonlinear optical properties of an exciton confined in a three-dimensional quantum dot with a parabolic potential are studied in a static magnetic field. Eigenvalues, wave functions, dipole matrix elements and selection rules are calculated analytically. Based on the calculated energies and wave functions, within the effective mass approximation, a compact-density matrix approach is employed to analyse the absorption coefficients and refractive index changes. The study is first of its kind since the excitonic effects are studied in a static magnetic field considering both the confinement potential and the electrostatic interaction between the electron-hole pair. An important finding of our research is the dependence of the magnitude of absorption coefficients on the radius of the quantum dot, the result that may have broad implications in future device designing.

The screened modified Kratzer potential (SMKP) model is utilized to scrutinize the impacts of an applied magnetic field (MF) on the binding energies and linear and nonlinear optical properties spherical GaAs quantum dot with donor impurity (DI). To accomplish this goal, we have used the diagonalization method to numerically solve the Schrödinger equation under the effective mass approximation for obtaining the electron energy levels and related electronic wave functions. The expressions used for evaluating linear, third-order nonlinear, and total optical absorption coefficients and relative refractive index changes were previously derived within the compact density matrix method. It has been shown here that the MF and DI impacts the characteristics of the absorption coefficients and the refractive index changes. This study's results will find application in optoelectronics and related areas.

We study the linear and nonlinear optical properties of a spherical GaAs quantum dot with screened modified Kratzer potential (SMKP) by solving the time-independent Schrödinger wave equation using the diagonalization method. The obtained electronic properties of the system alongside the compact density formalism are used to evaluate the linear, third-order nonlinear and total optical absorption coefficients and change in the relative refractive index of the system. We show that the confinement potential parameters and optical intensity significantly affects the behaviour of absorption coefficients and refractive index changes.

Linear and Nonlinear Optical Properties of Spherical Quantum Dots: Effects of Hydrogenic Impurity and Conduction Band Non-Parabolicity

G. Rezaei, Behrooz Vaseghi, N.A. Doostimotlagh

Simultaneous effects of an on-center hydrogenic impurity and band edge non-parabolicity on intersubband optical absorption coefficients and refractive index changes of a typical GaAs/Al x Ga 1−x As spherical quantum dot are theoretically investigated, using the Luttinger—Kohn effective mass equation. So, electronic structure and optical properties of the system are studied by means of the matrix diagonalization technique and compact density matrix approach, respectively. Finally, effects of an impurity, band edge non-parabolicity, incident light intensity and the dot size on the linear, the third-order nonlinear and the total optical absorption coefficients and refractive index changes are investigated. Our results indicate that, the magnitudes of these optical quantities increase and their peaks shift to higher energies as the influences of the impurity and the band edge non-parabolicity are considered. Moreover, incident light intensity and the dot size have considerable effects on the optical absorption coefficients and refractive index changes.
