Abstract
In this paper, we studied the nonlinear optical properties of a negative donor center ( D −) in a disk-like quantum dot (QD) with a Gaussian confining potential. Calculations are carried out by using the method of numerical diagonalization of Hamiltonian matrix within the effective-mass approximation. A detailed investigation of the linear, third-order nonlinear, total optical absorptions and refractive index changes has been carried out for the D − QD and the D 0 QD. The linear, third-order nonlinear, total optical absorptions and refractive indices have been examined for a double-electron QD with and without impurity. Our results show that the optical absorption coefficients and refractive indices in a disk-like QD are much larger than their values for quantum wells and spherical QDs and the nonlinear optical properties of QDs are strongly affected not only with the confinement barrier height, dot radius, the number of electrons but also the electron-impurity interaction.
