Abstract
In this paper, the effects of the incident light polarization on the bound to continuum linear absorption coefficient of quantum dot devices have been investigated. The study is based on the effective mass theory and the Non Equilibrium Green's Function formalism. For the bound to continuum component of the absorption coefficient, both of in-plane and perpendicular polarization effects are studied for different sizes of conical quantum dots. Generally, decreasing the dot's dimensions results in an increase of the in-plane polarized light absorption and in moving the absorption peak towards longer wavelengths. On the other hand, decreasing the dot's dimensions results in a decrease of the perpendicularly polarized light absorption coefficient and in moving the absorption peak towards longer wavelengths.
