Abstract
We present an application of Green’s functions formalism to calculate in a simplified but rigorous way electrons and holes capture time in quantum dots in closed form as function of carrier density, levels confinement potential, and temperature. Carrier-carrier (Auger) scattering and single LO-phonon emission are both addressed accounting for dynamic effects of the potential screening in the single plasmon pole approximation of the dielectric function. Regarding the LO-phonons interaction, the formulation evidences the role of the dynamic screening from wetting-layer carriers in comparison with its static limit, describes the interplay between screening and Fermi band filling, and offers simple expressions for capture time, suitable for modeling implementation.
