Abstract

The effect of homogeneous electric field on the energy spectrum, wave functions of electron and oscillator strengths of intra-band quantum transitions in a double cylindrical quantum ring (GaAs/Al$_{x}$Ga$_{1-x}$As) is studied within the approximations of effective mass and rectangular potentials. The calculations are performed using the method of expansion of quasiparticle wave function over a complete set of cylindrical wave functions obtained as exact solutions of Schr\"odinger equation for an electron in a nanostructure without electric field. It is shown that the electric field essentially affects the electron localization in the rings of a nanostructure. Herein, the electron energies and oscillator strengths of intra-band quantum transitions non-monotonously depend on the intensity of electric field.

Highlights

  • Multilayered semiconductor nanostructures are studied both theoretically and experimentally for quite a long time

  • The electron energy spectrum and oscillator strengths of intra-band quantum transitions in a double quantum ring GaAs/AlxGa1−xAs nanostructure are studied as functions of the electric field intensity (F) within the approximations of effective mass and rectangular potentials

  • To calculate the energy spectrum and probability densities of the electron location in nano-rings driven by electric field, the stationary Schrödinger equation is solved using the method of expansion of a quasiparticle wave function over a complete set of wave functions in a nanostructure without the electric field

Summary

Introduction

Multilayered semiconductor nanostructures are studied both theoretically and experimentally for quite a long time. Semiconductor quantum rings occupy a separate place among various types of nanostructures As a rule, they have cylindrical symmetry as well as quantum wires [4]. In [8, 9], the influence of a magnetic field on the energy spectrum of the electron and on the oscillator strengths of its intra-band quantum transitions in GaAs/AlxGa1−xAs rings was studied. It was shown that the electron energies and the oscillator strength of intra-band quantum transitions non-monotonously depend on the induction of the magnetic field. The oscillator strengths of intra-band quantum transitions as functions of the electric field intensity in a double quantum ring GaAs/AlxGa1−xAs nanostructure are analyzed. 2.
