Abstract

Electronic transitions in the quantum confined states in the conduction band of spherical ZnO semiconductor quantum dot are studied. Photoabsorption spectra and oscillator strengths have been obtained for various sizes of quantum dot using effective mass approximation. Electric quadrupole effect has been included in addition to the electric dipole effect. The nonlinear contribution to photoabsorption spectra has also been studied. Results for transition energies of the quantum confined states are found to be in good agreement with the available experimental data.
