Abstract
The electron self-energy and correction to the electron effective mass in a freestanding quantum wire with parabolic confining potential was investigated by the perturbation approach. Both the electron-confined longitudinal optical (LO) phonon and surface optical (SO) phonon interactions were considered. Results shows that, for small wire radius, the contributions of electron–LO phonon interaction to the electron self-energy and the correction to the electron effective mass are relatively small in compare with those of the electron–SO phonon interaction.
